Lyrics
What if I Stay
I?ve been dreaming of your smiling face
I?ve been hearing your voice in the wind
But tonight I feel you hesitate
Your eyes are nervous and they?re wandering
You say that you?re afraid we?re wasting time
You?d rather I leave now before your heart is on the line
CH) But what if I stay
And hold you as the sun rises, love you in the moonlight
And comfort you when all of life comes closing in
What if I stay
And always bring you flowers, stay up and talk for hours
Stand hand in hand as every winding road begins
What if I stay
I can understand you?ve been betrayed
My daddy left me just before I was born
There?s no guarantees, we may be afraid
But nowhere worse than where we?ve been before
Yes, I guess I could be on my way
And give tomorrow up for yesterday
CH)
What if I stay
And spend the passing years to fill your eyes with joyful tears
And wonder at the web of love we slowly spin
And never walk away
What if I stay
