Steph Davies: Sounds.

"Stay"

(Steph Davies)
July 7, 2011

I thought I'd sit & write it down

how I feel when you're around

but I couldn't find the words to say

You're the only one I want

you're the only think I thought

you're the only song I want to play

Won't you stay

a little while

Won't you stay

another mile

Oh, stay, a little while

with me

I know it seems by now I'd find

a way to say what's on my mind

I hope you're reading between the lines

something tells me it's there you'll find

That you're the only dream I've dreamt

you're the only book I've read

Without words, no, it can't be said

You'll have to trust what's in my head

And stay,

a little while

Please, stay

walk another mile

oh, stay

another day with me

So I stand without regret

rearranging the alphabet

trying to find my own secret

way to say

You're the only one I see

the only place I want to be

the only one I'd ever ask to stay
