If I Could Stay

If I could stay just for a minute more

Then I could say all the things I've been saving up for

Never enough time in the day&moments like this

come a moment too late

And, there's so many things that I don't understand

And I'm standing in line with my open hand

Waiting for some explanation

Something to hold onto

And the minutes of the day turn to hours of the week

And time's slippin' away & we don't hardly speak

And I'm feeling so lost deep in my soul

And if I could spend some of the time I'm saving

I can imagine your face the minute you see me

coming home

It's only a dream cos you're far away

And time spent on dreams could be time saved

And there's so many things that I don't understand

And I'm standing in line with my open hand

Waiting for some explanation, something to hold onto

And the minutes of the day turn to hours of the week

And time's slipping away & we don't hardly speak

And I'm feeling so lost deep in my soul

Listen closely tell me everything's alright

I'm putting all of my trust in you

So, please don't let me fall too far tonight

When there's so many things that I don't understand

And I'm standing in line with my open hand

Waiting for some explanation, something to hold onto

And the minutes of the day turn to hours of the week

And time's slipping away & we don't hardly speak

And I'm feeling so lost deep in my soul...

And If I could look,

Then I could find

Some of the simple sweet words

That are so hard to speak sometimes...
