Stay Lyrics by ​ilyaugust

2024

[Verse 1]
Still stuck in my head about all the things that you said
When you told me forever, guess it's not what you meant
Now I'm here hung up, messages on read
Said he was nothing but chose him instead
Smell of your perfume's the only thing that's left
Guess he's your fresh air, while I'm holding my breath
When I said forever I meant 'til death
When you said forever guess it was pretend

[Chorus]
Where did we go wrong?
What did you notice all along?
Was there something you said?
Something I missed?
'Cause you moved on when I never did
Why won't you stay?
Won't you stay?

[Verse 2]
Told me it was real, but I guess you ain't ever told me straight
Said I was the one but I ain't ever see you demonstrate
Knew that it was over you were running out of things to say
You're out starting over, I'm still cleaning up the mess you made
Don't know why I love you still, after what you've done to me
I'm still holdin' on but you're out erasing our history
Why'd I waste my time?

[Chorus]
Where did we go wrong?
What did you notice all along?
Was there something you said?
Something I missed?
'Cause you moved on when I never did
Why won't you stay?
Won't you stay?

[Outro]
Is there somebody else that pulled you away?
'Cause you moved on, didn't hesitate
I thought you'd stay
Won't you stay?
Where did we go wrong?
