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.
Your hair looks wonderful
Your clothes well-kept
I know you're wide awake
But I haven't slept yet
It's almost ten o'clock
And before you leave
Make sure the door is lock
[CHORUS]
Unless you stay for a while
I know it's getting near
Why don't you stay for a while?
It's hard to say I love you, dear
I love you, dear
And then you leave with smiles
And you return with tears
Knowing you, it may come true
All of my biggest fears
It's almost twelve o'clock
And before you leave
Make sure the door is lock
Chorus
Your hair looks wonderful
Your clothes are so well-kept
I know you're wide awake
But I haven't slept yet
I haven't slept
Why don't you stay for a while?
I know it's getting near
Why don't you stay for a while?
It's hard to say I love you, dear
I love you, dear
My hair looks wonderful
My clothes are so well-kept
I know I'm wide awake
And you haven't slept yet
You haven't slept yet
Why don't you stay for a while?
I know it's getting near
Why don't you stay for a while?
It's hard to say I love you, dear
I love you, dear
