Stay Awhile

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.

Hell on earth ain't hard to find

But you can save me from mine

Stop the time's bayonet

From stabbing all that's delicate

I won't be afraid of growing old

If I have your hand to hold

I'm looking for eternity

Will you find it with me

Please, stay awhile

Show me how to smile

Please, stay awhile

I am not a great man

But I'll give you all I can

I'll be the lashes on your eyes

Catch every tear that you cry

Please, stay awhile

Show me how to smile

Please, stay awhile

Let's fill this room with empty coffee cups

so we don't ever have to go to sleep

Because if I close my eyes

I fear tomorrow won't let this day repeat

My life's been filled with turned out lights

haunted by the hurt of closing doors

Let's turn the locks and lose the keys

I don't want them open anymore (anymore)

Well I see you in an antique wedding gown

and me slowly walking down the aisle

Can you see us now?

And won't you be the mother of my child

I can see you every time she smiles

I love your smile

So please, stay awhile

Please stay, awhile
