lyrics

"Stay a Little While"

you miss her when she's gone
you miss her when she's there
you miss her with your eyes
you miss her everywhere you look tonight

please don't talk
if you see me on the sydney bridge
please don't walk
up to me when i'm near the edge

you're missing how it felt
when fingers stretched out for your hand
don't say you've given up
i need you more than you need me

my heart will stop
beating
without you

stay a little while
please stay a little while
stay another night and another and another and another

it took time and memory
everything you meant to me
to pack up all our skeletons
and put them into boxes

stay a little while
please stay a little while
stay another night and another and another and another

you miss her when she smiles
you miss her when her tears make rain
you miss her honesty
and even when she lies to save your face
