Roy Buchanan › Lyrics › Please Don't Turn Me Away

Please don't turn me away, please let me stay
I'm askin' you for just a little bit of your time
I'm askin' you to, to leave the past behind
You don't have to tell me that it was never right, I know that, baby
But all I really know right now is that I need you tonight

I need your love in ought, to stop the rain, to ease my pain
I need the sound of your sweet voice, baby
To comfort me through my dark and trilly, trilly night baby

I need your love in ought, to stop the rain, to ease my pain, yeah
I need the sound of your sweet voice, oh, to comfort me, baby
Through my dark, my dark and trilly, trilly night, yeah

Please don't turn me away, please baby just let me stay
Don't make me pay for each and every one of my crimes
All I wanna do baby, all I wanna do is hold you one more time, yeah
And if I cannot ever be you lover again
Oh, for one more night, for one more night let me be your friend

Oh, oh baby don't turn me away
