Stay

I wonder how it would be if you'd stay with me
And all I want right now is you to stay with me
Something changed in me
Violently a feeling is growing
And I'm battling so hard against myself
I see you in everything
The whole world around me screams your name
Even though I try to erase you from my mind
Thinking of you
I find myself
Smiling alone, alone
I wonder how it would be if you'd stay with me
And so I long for your embrace
I wonder how it would be if you'd stay with me
'Cause I'm surrendering to this love
The words that you don't say
Deafening silence killing me
'Cause all I want right now is you to stay with me
Are you cheating me?
Are you playing with my fragility?
I'd better run away before it is too late
I'd better save myself
From the wicked spell you cast on me
Because you're so far
And it's consuming me
I wonder how it would be if you'd stay with me
And so I long for your embrace
I wonder how it would be if you'd stay with me
'Cause I'm surrendering to this love
The words that you don't say
Deafening silence killing me
'Cause all I want right now is you to stay with me
And so maybe you're the right one
At the wrong time
We were not ready for this
Can you try to let it go to
Leave it all behind and stay
Stay, stay, together we can try
Try to make us whole
And so maybe
You're the right one
At the wrong time
We were not ready for this
I wonder how it would be if you'd stay with me
And I want you to caress me
I wonder how it would be if you'd stay with me
I feel connected to your soul
I feel like there's nothing
Nothing that can divide our hearts
And all I want right now is you to stay with me
And so maybe
You're the right one
At the wrong time
We were not ready for this
