Come and Stay with Me
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'll send away all my false pride
And I'll forsake all of my life.
Yes, I'll be as true, as true can be
If you'll come and stay with me.
Lovers of the past I'll leave behind,
There'll never be another on my mind.
I'll do all I can so you'll feel free
If you'll come and stay with me.
The promises I made most faithfully,
I'll keep still, should you decide to leave.
I'll try and see that you have all you need
If you'll come and stay with me.
We'll live a life no one has ever known,
But I know you're thinking that I'm hardly grown.
But oh, thank God, at last and finally
I can see you're gonna stay with me.
But oh, thank God, at last and finally
I can see you're gonna stay with me.
