Stay

Can you give me a stay ?
I swear I won't intrude
Can you give me a stay ?
Away from solitude
Can you give me a stay ?
I'll be the best of friends
Can you give me a stay ?
And I will pray, only to you.

Can you warm up my heart ?
I have been bleeding cold
Can you not tell my folks ?
Or my girlfriend, or the wallflowers.
Can you be my best friend,
Stop getting lost in space and time ?
Can I be in your life ?

Is your life a place for me to stay ?
I won't make a sound, I won't disturb you
Some lack of faith makes me crash day to day
And I swallow more words than I can get through.

Tell me if it's okay
I really need to know.

Will your girlfriend be home ?
You know I don't really mind
Can you give me the bonds
That keep me grounded down ?
I'm looking for a place
That I can't imagine
I'll settle for second best
Is your door open for this ?

Is your life a place for me to stay ?
I won't make a sound, I won't disturb you
Some lack of faith makes me crash day to day
And I swallow more words than I can get through.

Tell me if it's okay
I really need to know.

Through the lands, through the sea
And fields of green clouds
I cling desperately
To anything I've found
Can you give me a stay ?
I haven't slept since I found you
Can you give me a stay
And make my life come true ?

Is your life a place for me to stay ?
I won't make a sound, I won't disturb you
Some lack of faith makes me crash day to day
And I swallow more words than I can get through.

Tell me if it's okay
I really need you.
