Say You’ll Stay Lyrics by Carter James

Say You’ll Stay

2017

[Verse 1]
I shake my head in disbelief
And wonder why you're shaking
You waste time pacing back and forth
And I just wish you'd just say more
[Pre-Chorus]
I stared up at the stars one night
And felt this feeling inside
And then I knew you would survive
[Chorus]
You've always been so bold
Grew thick skin to survive all this
What was the last lie you told just so you could get through it
Yes, I know you're growing old and dreams are meant for dreaming
Oh, but you don't have to sell your soul
You don't have to go through this alone
[Verse 2]
In this wondrous world I fly
Way above the clouds
And everybody wonders why
I never touch the ground
[Pre-Chorus]
You, my god, are so divine
You take the time to help me fly
When I feel like crying
[Chorus]
You've always been so bold
Grew thick skin to survive all this
What was the last lie you told just so you could get through it
Yes, I know you're growing old and dreams are meant for dreaming
Oh, but you don't have to sell your soul
You don't have to go through this alone
[Bridge]
Time will fade
And all mistakes will be memories
So please just say you'll stay
Please just say you'll stay
[Chorus]
You've always been so bold
Grew thick skin to survive all this
What was the last lie you told just so you could get through it
Yes, I know you're growing old and dreams are meant for dreaming
Oh, but you don't have to sell your soul
You don't have to go through this alone
Please just say you'll stay
