Stay

Baby, baby with eyes of green
I don't know what all of this could mean
Pull a loose thread and you'll ruin the entire seam

Baby, baby with a heart of gold
Together we would never grow old
Give me the answers that make me whole
'Cause I know you want to run away
And I know you're gonna leave someday
And I don't know how to make you stay

I feel alive when you hold my hand
But I can see that backward glance
Looking for some uninvited chance

And I hope you will find some satisfaction
Leaving it all for the promised attraction
Greener grass and a piece of the action
'Cause I know you want to run away
And I know you're gonna leave someday
And I don't know how to make you stay

Baby, baby the time has come
Are you gonna stay or will you run
I'll never know just what you're running from

Baby, baby the train's at the station
And you're trying the very last ounce of my patience
But you've got to find your own path to salvation
'Cause I know you want to run away
And I know you're gonna leave someday
And I don't know how to make you stay

When the night comes in and the day is over
I want to be your only shoulder
Without you near me the world seems colder
Please stay
