Lyrics

Stay

[Verse 1]

Well it's the same old story and I don't mind it

Oh well I stand my ground but be open minded

Oh and I recognise that I'm not normally like this

I gotta be terrified and still show kindness

[Pre Chorus]

So what ya running away from?

Yeah

[Chorus]

Stay

Don't stay for the money just stay for the game and

Won't you stay

Well my mind keeps racing over a grade A

[Verse 2]

Daylight drinking and ending up in fights

Won't ya come out in Dublin just for the night

And my heads spinning round I better lay down a minute

Oh I'm so broke I think I'm finished

[Pre Chorus]

So what ya running away from?

Yeah

[Chorus]

Stay

Don't stay for the money just stay for the game and

Won't you stay

Cuz my mind keeps racing over a grade A

[Bridge]

Stay

Stay

Oh won't you stay

Oh won't you stay

[Chorus]

Stay

Don't stay for the money just stay for the game and

Won't you stay

Cuz my mind keeps racing over a grade A
