Lyrics
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.
She flickers just a pleading thought
An echo back through time
Regret, perhaps, reverberates behind
And in her silent ghostly voice
Remains a somber calm
Each syllable recalls her fate
And seems to say it all
You can wander far away from me
But tomorrow's dressed in our memories
And happiness is what you make, it's no mistake
Why don't you stay?
Half of one is still so incomplete
Wanting to be you and me
Three short words you can't repeat: I love you
Why don't you stay?
As chaos p-ssing in a blur
An innocence already gone
The gears of tragic sadness turn
And blindly carry on
Reflections p-ss in spheres of sound
And now the echo fades away
Perfection slips unrecognized
Still I hear her say
You can wander far away from me
But tomorrow's dressed in our memories
And happiness is what you make, it's no mistake
Why don't you stay?
Half of one is still so incomplete
Wanting to be you and me
Three short words you can't repeat: I love you
Why don't you stay?
Tell me, do you hear her voice?
It echoes and echoes and echoes
Narcissus made the choice
You can wander far away from me
But tomorrow's dressed in our memories
And happiness is what you make, it's no mistake
Why don't you stay?
Half of one is still so incomplete
Wanting to be you and me
Three short words you can't repeat: I love you
Why don't you stay?
You can wander far away from me
But tomorrow's dressed in our memories
And happiness is what you make, it's no mistake
Why don't you stay?
Half of one is still so incomplete
With words unnoticed, just repeat: I love you
Why don't you stay?
