Lyrics
Watching Someone Leave
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.
Here's the part where we all look back
And figure out what made us laugh
To get through the times when it was hard
Enough to change who we are
For the best we all say
With life comes death so naturally
But how can watching someone leave
So close to me be comforting
I can't begin to explain myself to you
Would you just stay and hold me as i've held you
By now you've figured out what this
Whole life is all about
To love the ones around to be loved
No matter who's controlling us
Yet time will heal all those wounds
You wish would stay and comfort you
But now you're void of what you had
To remember them and it kills you
I can't begin to explain myself to you
Would you just stay and hold me as i've held you
I can't begin to explain myself to you
Would you just stay and hold me as i've held you
Here's the part where i break down and let you know
How i can be so young and in control, most of the time
I know i'm calloused and it's kind of hard to get in
But here's the reason why i am the man i am
It's cause of him
I can't begin to explain myself to you
Would you just stay and hold me as i've held you
I can't begin to explain myself to you
Would you just stay and hold me as i've held you
I can't begin to explain myself to you
Would you just stay and hold me as i've held you
I can't begin to explain myself to you
Would you just stay
