Reasons To Stay

Haven't felt like this in like forever
You and me and nothing in our way
It's funny how the little things
Can be so amazing
It's funny how the minutes fade from the day
Maybe there's a reason to leave you
But all I've got are reasons to stay

If the stars turn their backs on heaven
All I'd need is you to light the way
Your soul is a lantern
Guiding this poor phantom
I'd brave the stormy waters just to see your face
Maybe there's a reason to leave you
But all I've got are reasons to stay

Father Time may bed with Mother Nature
Giving birth to all the things unnamed
Who knows when it's over
But darling when it's over
The passion in our bed will put theirs to shame
Maybe there's a reason to leave you
But all I've got are reasons to stay

We're the best laid plans
Of mice and men
We're the stricken band
No one understands
So take my hand
We'll scorch this land
We'll leave nothing
I'll have nothing

I haven't felt like this since like, the last one
Memories rush over me in waves
Forty days of laughter
Forty nights stay after
I never see the ship rising from the grave
Maybe there's a reason to leave you
But all I've got are reasons to stay

Thought I had a grip on these emotions
Thought I saw the spark ignite the flame
Got lonely on my island
Found noise to fill the silence
Singing different words, notes stay the same
Maybe there's a reason to leave you
But all I've got are reasons to stay
