I never understood a word they said Kept running in woods so long instead Somewhere, somehow, I guess I lost it all Try to keep it up and standing tall Why don't you stay, stay cause I could really use a friend Stay, please stay cause my heart really needs a man Somewhere, somehow, I guess I lost it all Stay, stay here with me I'm trying to make it up for my mistakes But everywhere I turn some hearts will break Something, someone, will end up getting hurt again And there's no need to pay printen Why don't you stay, stay cause I could really use a friend Stay, please stay cause my heart really needs a man Somewhere, somehow I guess I lost it all Stay, stay here with me You used to say that I was great But I make too many mistakes Your heart will break because of me, because of me But I just want, yeah I just want, but I just want, want you to stay Why don't you stay, stay cause I could really use a friend Stay, please stay cause my heart really needs a man Somewhere, somehow, I guess I lost it all Stay, stay here with me Why don't you stay, stay cause I could really use a friend Stay, please stay cause my heart really needs a man Somewhere, somehow I guess I lost it all Stay, stay here with me

TV flashes down the hall Paintin' pictures on the wall And you're still sleeping on my knees And in the glow of silver light I trace the lines above your eyes Just another wrinkle that you can blame on me But I can hear the current of the freeway in the distance, if I keep listenin' And I wonder if you ever thought of streamin' off, somewhere with it Am I not what you thought? Will you get tired of what you got? If I can't give you anymore Than weathered ships and distant shores Would you still be my compass? Yeah 'Cause you keep lovin' me the same I don't know how but you still stay with me, baby You stay with me, baby Another day, another week We'll slip back in old routines 'Til nights like these come in between Simple moments in the dark Ones that life can't tear apart They come along, oh just when we need And still hear the current of the freeway in the distance but I stop listenin' 'Cause I know you'll stay even though the waves are always shiftin' We're fightin' our way through, I guess I always knew If I can't give you anymore Than weathered ships and distant shores Would you still be my compass? Yeah 'Cause you keep lovin' me the same I don't know how but you still stay with me, baby You stay with me, baby 'Cause you keep lovin' me the same I don't know how but you still stay with me, baby You stay with me baby, oh you stay with me TV flashes down the hall Paintin' pictures on the wall And you're still sleeping on my knees
