Stay

Shooting arrows at the moon
Trying to craft a life where love and joy can thrive
I saw her in the afternoon, couldn't get myself to look her in the eyes
The shame of unmet dreams weighs heavy on my chest
I wish I was the man she deserves, but I'm a mess

Then one night I asked her for the truth
Said: "How can I be enough for you?"

And she said: "Stay, don't wither away"
In your darkness, I still see day
'Cause I chose you, not dreams of what could be
Don't go chase the ghosts, just stay with me
Just stay with me

Oh-oh, oh, stay with me
Oh-oh, oh, stay with me

I can feel the tempest rage, but she finds rainbows in the afterglow
Can it really be this way? A kind of paradox that only hearts can know
My jaw drops to the floor, her love a mystery
She wants the man I am, not who I'm trying to be

Against all logic and the tide
She sees the light I have inside

'Cause she said "Stay, don't wither away"
In your darkness, I still see day
'Cause I chose you, not dreams of what could be
Don't go chase the ghosts, just stay with me
Just stay with me

Oh-oh, oh, stay with me
Oh-oh, oh, stay with me
Oh-oh, oh, stay with me
Oh-oh, oh

In the silence of the night (silence of the night)
When all doubts consume my mind (consume my mind)
I'll stay and darkness will subside
As long as I keep her by my side
