stay with me: lyrics by me

there are so many reason to be afraid in this world
but you hold me so tight
and when i am wrong you don't make a big deal
always letting me gloat when i'm right
i never thought i could feel this much
i was once a hollow heart
but you have taken me by the hand and
shown me that patience is art

stay with me, a little longer
i don't want you to go home tonight
stay with me a little longer
i don't want to have to say goodnight

god gives us only the things we can handle,
she's given us a lot to work out
there are times i have strayed and times you have lied
but we've always figured it out
Honesty is the best place we've ever been
honesty is love
and there is no one else that i'd rather be with
when push comes to shove

stay with me, a little longer
i don't want you to go home tonight
stay with me a little longer
i don't want to have to say goodnight

believe in me when i say that i am yours
i believe in you when you say that you are mine
life is the fastest clock i've ever seen
but you'll be with me for all of our time

stay with me, a little longer

i don't want you to leave me tonight

stay with me a little longer

when you're here it just feels more right

stay with me, a little longer

i couldn't take it if you left

stay with me a little longer

you're my baby, my darling, the best
