We Want You To Stay
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
These are the games that we want you to play
We are your friends and we want you to stay
I said O.K. I will try
But as time passed by all the games grew so hard
Each day a hundred more friends did arrive
And I took to watching the clouds
Friend, we want you to stay
Want you to stay, want you to stay
Friend, we want you to stay
Want you to stay, want you to stay
The days they grew heavy with time on their back
Then I saw a man with a travelling pack
Out of the house I did go
I asked him the name of the town that he sought
And he said the next one and the ones after that
Slowly I went back inside
Friend, we want you to stay
Want you to stay, want you to stay
