Stay Away

[Verse 1] (Piano Intro) I kept an open mind in the face of a closed book I hope that we might see eye to eye some day They say that absence makes the heart grow fonder So I am begging you to stay away [Verse 2] They day I found out that was it and you were leaving I was scared I didn't feel a thing Now even after years or months or days I can't believe that I could let you make me feel much of anything [Chorus] I'll say what i needed to say I know that you'll hear it this way [Verse 3] I couldn't do much right and so I gave up trying I felt it was the only way I had nothing left to lose or so I thought until I started To feel my life slip away [Outro] I'll say what i needed to say I know that you'll hear it this way I'll say what I needed to say I know that you'll hear it this way
