lyrics

Stay

If you want to stay
You can help me keep the peace
If you never have to leave, then I’ll never have to suffer
It’s just you and me

Please don’t say goodbye
You’ll forget just how to try
I’ll have no need to close the door, here is all I have to offer
It’s just you and I

So, stay in my life, dream my dreams
See the courage and the colour of my soul
See from my scars where it starts
And begin to build a buffer, make me whole

Stay, I don’t want to be alone
I don’t want to say goodbye
Stay, I just want to share the stars
I can give you half the sky

If you wanna stay
I’ll build us somewhere safe to live
A place no-one will ever find
And we’ll never have to suffer
We’ll leave the world behind

Cause, there is not a key
Can’t you see, I will keep you free from others
And you know
That it’s all OK, if you stay
I will never need another to control

Stay, I don’t want to be alone
I don’t want to say goodbye
Stay, I just want to share the stars
I can give you half the sky

But if you go
Make a rush for the door
Keep your eyes fixed on me
Cause you just need to know
No-one else here can see, quite that deep in your soul

Stay, I don’t want to be alone
I don’t want to say goodbye
Stay, I just want to share the stars
I can give you half the sky
Stay, for the sake of all that’s true
And because I told you to

If you want to stay, I can leave an open door
But if you want to leave, then that’s what the key is for
