I Stayed Long Enough
George Jones · A Good Year For The Roses - The Complete Musicor Recordings 1965- [2009]
(Tammy Wynette)
Accident'ly in your arms
That's all it took
Knowing how you need and want me
With just one look.
To leave you now is something
You should know that I can't do
I stayed long enough
To fall in love with you.
Long enough to know that
What I feel won't go away
Just lookin' won't be near enough
After today.
Everything I need is
Everything I see in you
I stayed long enough
To fall in love with you.
--- Instrumental ---
Oh, long enough to know that
What I feel won't go away
And just lookin' won't be near enough
After today.
Everything I need is
Everything I see in you
I stayed long enough
To fall in love with you.
I stayed just long enough
To fall in love with you...
Accident'ly in your arms
That's all it took
Knowing how you need and want me
With just one look.
To leave you now is something
You should know that I can't do
I stayed long enough
To fall in love with you.
Long enough to know that
What I feel won't go away
Just lookin' won't be near enough
After today.
Everything I need is
Everything I see in you
I stayed long enough
To fall in love with you.

Oh, long enough to know that
What I feel won't go away
And just lookin' won't be near enough
After today.
Everything I need is
Everything I see in you
I stayed long enough
To fall in love with you.
I stayed just long enough
To fall in love with you...
