The State
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.
I'm so glad we met when we were kids
And I'm so glad you never moved away
You can always stay
Never be away
Never be taken
I'm so glad we met the way we did
I'm also glad we never tried to be more than that
You can always stay
And you can always be
A better friend than me
Better friend than me
But if someday you'd like to change your place
I understand
I can't blame you if you want to leave the state
Your state
Well go
Just don't be a stranger
And I know you
You like to leave your place
But me up on the way
I'll be begging you to stay
If you leave your place
I shouldn't have stayed here
I shouldn't have stayed here
Yeah I shouldn't have stayed here
Oh I shouldn't have stayed here in California
!Maíra, te amo mesmo!
