I Stay In Love
"I Stay in Love" is a song by American singer-songwriter Mariah Carey, taken from her eleventh studio album, E=MC² (2008). It was written by Carey, Bryan-Michael Cox, Adonis Shropshire and Kendrick Dean, and produced by the former two. "I Stay in Love" was released through Island Records on October 28, 2008, as the fourth and final single from the album. Drawing influence from the R&B music genre, the song features a piano and keyboard-driven melody, and a strong accompanying drum-beat. Lyrically, the song finds Carey getting "her cry on with the connect-the-dots break-up track." She describes the old time she shared with her love interest. She narrates that even though they said let go, and that she is aware that there is nothing left in their relationship, she still "stays in love with him".

Lyrics
Oh baby
Baby, I stay in love with you
Dying inside cause I can`t stand it
Make or break up
Can`t take this madness
We don`t even really know why
All I know is baby
I try and try so hard
To keep our love alive
If you dont` know me at this point
Then I highly doubt you ever will
I really need you to give me
That unconditional love I used to feel
It`s no mistaking
We`re just erasing
From our hearts and minds
And I know we said let go
But I kept on hanging on
Inside I know it`s over
You`re really gone
It`s killing me
Cause there ain`t nothing
That I can do
Baby, I stay in love with you
And I keep on telling myself
That you`ll come back around
And I try to front like "Oh well"
Each time you let me down
See I can`t get over you now
No matter what I do
But baby, baby
I stay in love with you
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
Baby, I stay in love with you
It cuts so deep
It hurts down to my soul
My friends tell me
I ain`t the same no more
We still need each other
When we stumble and fall
How we gon` act
Like what we had
Ain`t nothin` at all now
Hey, what I wanna do is
Ride shotgun next to you
With the top down like we used to
Hit the block
Proud in the SUV
We both know our heart is breaking
Can we learn from our mistakes
I can`t last one moment alone
Now go I know
We said let go
But I kept on hanging on
Inside I know it`s over
You`re really gone
It`s killing me
Cause there ain`t nothing
That I can do
Baby, I stay in love with you
And I keep on telling myself
That you`ll come back around
And I try to front like "Oh well"
Each time you let me down
See I can`t get over you
Now no matter what I do
Baby, baby
I stay in love with you
We said let go
But I kept on hanging on
Inside I know it`s over
You`re really gone
It`s killing me
Cause there ain`t nothing
That I can do
Baby, I stay in love with you
And I keep on telling myself
That you`ll come back around
And I try to front like "Oh well"
Each time you let me down
See I can`t get over you
Now no matter what I do
But baby, baby
I stay in love with you
I stay in love
Love
Oh, I stay in love.
