The song "Stay" by Alessia Cara and Zedd is about wanting another person to stay rather than leave or change their mind. The singer gives reasons why the person should stay and acknowledges that they know the clock is ticking, so they should stay even if just for a minute or second. The singer doesn't want to be alone for the night and feels they need the other person.

By: Alessia Cara, Zedd
I. Fill in the gaps with the missing word/s

But you're coming/going, and you know
that
I. Put the phrases/sentences in order

______ The clock is ticking, so stay
______ Just take your time
______ All you have to do is wait a second
______ The clock is ticking, so stay
______ Your hands on mine
______ All you have to do is stay a minute

(holding tight someone/something, clinging
to someone/something, releasing
someone/something)
I don't wanna spend (keep, consume, save,
remain) the night alone
Guess I need you (estimate, certainty, truth,
fact), and I need to…
