Stay Awhile

Clocks marching at the double time Every dollar has become a dime Hearts breaking at the speed of sound Falling down, all around Bombs lighting up the eastern sky The backroom deals and the bottom lines The Earth's shaking, but we don't know why A million fires, oceans rise I leave it all when I feel you near What I'm saying is I need you here Even though love never seems to last If you think we’ve got a chance Stay awhile Oh you got to stay awhile These days are wild So baby, won't you stay awhile Drop the needle on the belle brigade We slow dance till the moonlight fades Tell me now that you'll never leave Always stay, here with me Keep me safe from the circus show The bullshit and the blowing smoke The knife hidden under every sleeve Stab your back, watch you bleed They’re gonna tell you what you wanna hear Like I can make you a star next year Well, if New York city's lights are so bright How come so many people cry tonight Stay awhile Oh you got to stay awhile These days are wild So baby, won't you stay awhile Let your hair fall around your face I would kill just to keep you safe Put your body next to mine Just let go, and close your eyes I shiver when I feel your skin Like a sinner who's been forgiven Go on, baby, shine your light 'Cause no one's gonna find us here tonight Stay awhile Oh you got to stay awhile These days are wild So baby, won't you stay awhile Stay awhile Oh you got to stay awhile These days are wild So baby, won't you stay awhile Stay awhile Oh you got to stay awhile These days are wild So baby, won't you stay awhile
