== Lyrics ==
Kyleigh: You’re leaving me? You’re leaving me?
Autumn: I have to. I don’t have any other choice, Kyleigh. 
Kyleigh: Gott in Himmel, no! You can’t leave me Autumn! Please don’t go!
Autumn: I made a promise! 
Kyleigh: If you leave me, if you leave me Why then I'd be Right back where I started which was Broke and starving...
Autumn: Kyleigh, you can live on your own for a while. 
Kyleigh: Close to bankrupt...
Autumn: I have to go!
Kyleigh: Beset, befuddled, and bereft That's what I'd be if Autumn left!
Autumn: Look, Caleb called and I have to go back to- 
Kyleigh: Autumn!
Autumn: Ma'am?
Kyleigh: (Whispers) Autumn... (Louder) Autumn, promise me that you won’t leave! 
Promise me that you walk right out that door! 
I never liked you much before,
but now the cash is in my drawer.
I've got no choice, I'm much too poor! Say yes!
Autumn: Excuse me?
Keleigh: Autumn, please don’t leave me now!
I need you to cook and clean for me!
I know that me and you both work 
You pay the bills, so don’t be a jerk!
So I'm proposing: please don’t leave!
Please don’t leave me! It’d be great! 
If you leave, it’ll be your fate! 
So say you'll fill my plate with glee. 
You write all day, it’s true! 
So now I’m just asking you! 
Please stay home and dance with me!
How 'bout it, Autumn, please stay home. 
Just say the word, then I'll never call your phone. 
Autumn, I’ll pay you extra cash every time you take the trash 
Oh, I’m not joking!
Autumn: Kyleigh, I'm choking!
Kyleigh: Excuse the physical expression of my pride 
Of the sweet paternal mishegoss I've held pent up inside! 
Autumn: (Cough) Gee...
Kyleigh: So?
Autumn: Well...
Kyleigh: Well?
Autumn: I- 
Kyleigh: You'll? Go ahead and say it Autumn! Tell me that you will!
Autumn: Gee, I really like to but-
Kyleigh: You're the one who pays the one bill- (Music stops)
Autumn: Wait, Kyleigh, I don’t pay the phone bill.
Kyleigh: Yes, you do, I take it out of your account every month.
Autumn: Is that why I’m always a couple hundred dollars short on my paycheck?
Kyleigh: Uhh- (Music starts again) Still! I need you! Please don’t leave! 
Autumn: OK, enough, I’m gonna leave! 
Kyleigh: You were always like a sister 
Never even found a mister 
And when you reach age eighty-three
I'll let you take the house from me!
Autumn: Just go-
Kyleigh: I promise!
Autumn: Just shut up! (Music stops)
