Stay
I say it as a friend
He can handle the daylight
But the night has its way
Touch him
Like on one did before
No fingerprints on the dew
So stay
Whatever you do
Watch him laughing
Ooh he can't help it
He sees through the eyes of a child
When he sees you
Baby
The town you come from
You said you'd like to leave
Then say
Where you gonna be
Do you see me
In your sleep
The dreams you're dreaming
Please be gentle, oh be gentle
There can be no other
Down so deep
But you do see me
Do you know what to keep
Do you?
So stay...
