Lyrics
Stay Away
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 hangs up the phone and she
Lays wide awake
Holding onto the heart you, again will break
It's not that she's innocent
And she's not been defiled
Yes she picks up the phone, well
It's you who dialed
And I know she's tell you to stay
But please, stay away
Stay away
Stay away
I know this is heavy
I know I seem mad
But you're the one who laughs and runs while
She's standing sad
We both know where this going from your history
She again will fall in love
You again will leave.
And I know she's telling you to stay
But please, stay away
Stay away
Stay away
She wears her heart on her sleeve
Yeah she's crying her eyes out to me
Heaven or hell she will go through
Depends on you
Depends on you
