Stay

I’m the last one standing so this must be my fault
And you’re curled up on the sofa, frozen with regret
It’s true one man’s accident is another man’s assault
But I haven’t figured out which one this is yet
But I’m tired of living in this state of fear
I’m gonna run you outta here one day
Talk is cheaper than it’s been in years
So I think there’s only one thing left to say
Stay
There was fire in my chest from the moment that we met
You were all style and grace and full of Southern charm
Still I wish that I didn’t know now what I didn’t know then
When I was young and starry-eyed and curled around your arm
But I’m tired of living in this state of fear
I’m gonna run you outta here one day
Talk is cheaper than it’s been in years
So I think there’s only one thing left to say
Stay
So I’ll keep standing by, no matter what the cost
Truth is that loneliness beats being alone
But I fear along the way something sacred has been lost
And I fear that my weakness is all that I’ll ever own
But I’m tired of living in this state of fear
I’m gonna run you outta here one day
Talk is cheaper than it’s been in years
So I think there’s only one thing left to say
Stay
Stay
Stay
Stay
Stay
Stay
Stay
Stay
Stay
