Stay

we don't have to say a word
sometimes its better when we don't
apologizes aren't always heard

sit beside me through the storm
the clouds above will take another form

(chorus)
it would be so easy for you to walk away
all that I can tell you is
i want you to stay

forget that man I was before
my eyes are open to the sky
my back lay flat against another shore

i can't erase mistakes I've made
and I can't stand to have them bring you pain

(chorus)

the clouds are empty
they roll away
the sky is silent
i am amazed
that you are still sitting here
when you could have left me
to drift away

(chorus)
