Stay

[Verse 1]

You held me like the one thing you'd never lose

I held you at a distance, and it was cruel

I'm really good at pushing away too soon

And now I wish you'd come back, but you never do

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, they say you're better off

As if it's gonna make it easy to move on

Oh, they say that time will heal

But they don't ever wake up feeling like I feel (Oh)

[Chorus]

I can't forget the night that I let you walk away

You took the beating of my heart

It doesn't work the same

I close my eyes somеtimes and hope that I see your face

And though I don't know whеre you are (Know that)

I wanted you to stay

[Verse 2]

I miss the way you'd call just to say my name

Messages on my phone, I still replay

You never know what you got 'til nothing's left

Forgive me now if I could say what I never said

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, they say you're better off

As if it's gonna make it easy to move on

Oh, they say that time will heal

But they don't ever wake up feeling like I feel (Oh)

[Chorus]

I can't forget the night that I let you walk away

You took the beating of my heart

It doesn't work the same

I close my eyes sometimes and hope that I see your face

And though I don't know where you are (Know that)

I wanted you to stay

[Post-Chorus]

I wanted you to stay (Stay)

I wanted you to stay

I wanted you to stay

Stay

[Outro]

Oh, they say you're better off

As if it's gonna make it easy to move on
