If Only You Could Stay Lyrics by River Black

Water

2025

[Verse 1]
And I've been thinking over
All the things that you've been saying to me
No reason or answers
Do I deceive myself when I'm making out to be?
[Chorus]
I thought I'm the guy with everything
If only you could stay
Only you could stay around a while, for me
Thought I had it all and anything
I wanted you to really matter
[Verse 2]
And I find myself searching
Through the days and all that you meant to me
I'm playing with fire
Will I burn inside when your passion lights for me?
[Chorus]
Oh, I thought I'm the guy with everything
If only you could stay
Only you could stay around a while, for me
Thought I had it all and anything
I wanted you to really matter
[Bridge]
When all is said and done for me
Therе's no other one for me
'Causе every time you speak
I feel my eyes drifting all around you
When all is said and done for me
There is no other one for me
'Cause every time you speak
I feel my eyes drifting all around you, ooh
[Outro]
When all is said and done for me
There is no other one for me
'Cause every time you speak
I feel my eyes drifting all around you
