Stay Lyrics by Alter Bridge

Pawns & Kings

2022

[Verse 1: Mark Tremonti, Mark Tremonti & Myles Kennedy]
Hold your hands up high and throw them in the air
Show that you care too much to feel this way again
Things that cause you pain, just throw them to the wind
Don't turn away again for I am always at your side

[Pre-Chorus: Mark Tremonti, Mark Tremonti & Myles Kennedy]
As I take another look around me
As I'm trying to be all I can be
Try to make me something more, and

[Chorus: Mark Tremonti & Myles Kennedy]
Don't wait, it won't last forever, and
Allow your heart to heal
Just begin to heal

[Verse 2: Mark Tremonti, Mark Tremonti & Myles Kennedy]
Make just one last wish and shout it to the sky
The time it is right to love, to feel, to light a fire
We'll never know just when we'll have the chance again
To see it to the end, so do your part and make it last

[Pre-Chorus: Mark Tremonti, Mark Tremonti & Myles Kennedy]
As I take another look around me
As I'm trying to be all I can be
Try to make me something more, and

[Chorus: Mark Tremonti & Myles Kennedy]
Don't wait, it won't last forever, and
Allow your heart to heal
Right here, stay the course with no regret
Right here with me

[Bridge: Myles Kennedy, Mark Tremonti & Myles Kennedy]
They say we'll get back to the way it was
Before the bitter winds of change
It's so hard to know where it's gonna go
Will you please give me a sign
That everything's gonna be alright?
It'll be alright

[Chorus/Outro: Mark Tremonti & Myles Kennedy]
Don't wait, it won't last forever, and
Allow your heart to heal
Right here, stay the course with no regret
Right here with me
Right here with me
