Stay Close, Don't Go

- Secondhand Serenade -


I'm staring at the glass in front of me
is it half empty of our wins or have i ruined all you've given me?
I know i've been selfish
i know i've been foolish
but look through that
and you will see
i'll do better, i know
baby, i can do better

if you leave me tonight, i'll wake up alone
don't tell me i will make it on my own, don't leave me tonight
this heart of stone will sing till it dies


if you leave me tonight
sometimes i stare at you while you are sleeping
i listen to your breathing
amazed how i somehow managed to sweep you off your feet girl
your perfect little feet girl
i took for granted what you do
but i'll do better, i know
baby, i can do better

if you leave me tonight, i'll wake up alone
don't tell me i will make it on my own, don't leave me tonight
this heart of stone will sing till it dies


and don't you know my heart is open
oh it's putting up the fight
and i've got this feeling
that everything's alright
and don't you see
i'm not the only one for you
but you're the only one for me
if you leave me tonight, i'll wake up alone
(stay) if you leave me tonight,
(close) i'll wake up alone
(don't) don't tell me i will
(go) make it on my own
(stay) don't leave me tonight,
(close) this heart of stone
(don't) will sing till it dies
(go) if you leave me tonight
don't leave me tonight

Awake

- Secondhand Serenade -

With every appearance by you, blinding my eyes,
I can hardly remember the last time I felt like I do.
You're an angel disguised.
And you're lying real still,
But your heart beat is fast just like mine.
And the movie's long over,
That's three that have passed, one more's fine.

WILL YOU STAY AWAKE FOR ME ?
I don't wanna miss anything
I don't wanna miss anything
I will share the air I breathe,
I'll give you my heart on a string,
I just don't wanna miss anything.

I'm trying real hard not to shake. I'm biting my tongue,
But I'm feeling alive and with every breathe that I take,
I feel like I've won. You're my key to survival.
And if it's a hero you want,
I can save you. Just stay here.
Your whispers are priceless.
Your breathe, it is dear. So please stay near.

WILL YOU STAY AWAKE FOR ME ?
I don't wanna miss anything
I don't wanna miss anything
I will share the air I breathe,
I'll give you my heart on a string,
I just don't wanna miss anything.

Say my name. I just want to hear you.
Say my name. So I know it's true.
You're changing me. You're changing me.
You showed me how to live.
So just say. So just say,

THAT YOU'LL STAY AWAKE FOR ME
I don't wanna miss anything.
I don't wanna miss anything.
I will share the air I breathe,
I'll give you my heart on a string,
I just don't wanna miss anything
