Lyrics

STAY ©1997 Cara Jones and Masanori Narikawa

They all say that she knows better
than to love a married man
who’ll never leave his wife and children
Get out while you can

And she knows it’s a gamble
living for the day
when he’s there in the morning
without begging him to stay

Stay til the morning comes
Say I’m the only one
Save your stories for the dawn
Stay and love me until the night is gone

Almost summer, she feels chilly
like a winter wind has blown
through the darkened bedroom window
where she lies alone

When it’s four in the morning
all his words are gone
And he loves her forever
but never til the dawn

Stay til the morning comes
Say I’m the only one
Save your stories for the dawn
Stay and love me until you’re gone
Stay til the morning comes
Say I’m the only one
Save your stories for the dawn
Stay and love me until the night is gone
