Wish I Could Stay Lyrics by ​sir Was

2022

[Chorus]
Wish I could stay, really wanted to say
Too much shame, be on my way
Wish I could stay, really wanted to play
But away I couldn't stay
Wish I could stay, really wanted to say
Too much shame, be on my way
Wish I could stay, really wanted to play
But away I couldn't stay
[Verse 1]
Look what I found
Ain't no worries in my mind
Stepped into an open door
A new found land don't understand
I had it in my open hand
I couldn't land, I need a plan
Look what I found
Ain't no worries in my mind
Moments passing by and by
Laughing, feeling close to cry
Enjoy this life why wouldn't I
I guess I felt a little high
Look what I found
Ain't no worries in my mind
Heart was frozen as my mind
I wouldn't mind another try
Searching for my courage to
Find my words and talk to you
[Chorus]
Wish I could stay, really wanted to say
Too much shame, be on my way
Wish I could stay, really wanted to play
But away I couldn't stay
[Verse 2]
Look what I found
Ain't no worries in my mind
I take my time, I want to hide
But I can't stay here on my side
Let another day go by
Need to see you, need to try
Look what I found
Ain't no worries in my mind
Dare to speak my inner truth
To let you know I think I've found
After years and years of inner grind
I talk too much, what did I find
It slipped my mind
Slipped my mind
Starting over every day
Searching for my courage to
Find my words and talk to you
A promise made I'm going to
[Chorus]
Wish I could stay really wanted to say
Too much shame, be on my way
Wish I could stay, really wanted to play
But away I couldn't stay
