Alison Moyet Stay
I wait in hope of every day
Changes come as changes may
With every fear that I allay
I have a horror of this place
Yet I'm accustomed to it's face
And I am safe within it's maze
But you leave me nothin'
In my hometown
And now you want to pull us down
But I can hope
And I can pray
And I will stay
I traced my way from Bluebell Hill
To the park and further still
Onto the rise beyond the mounds
And from this point I could see
My life in it's entirety
Mapped before me on the ground
But you leave me nothing
In my hometown
And now you want to pull us down
But I can hope
And I can pray
And I will stay
Let the cold air bite my face
For I am angry at this place
Wherein nothing stays the same
It breaks my heart to let you go
When deep inside us we both know
That you will not be back again
But you leave me nothing
In my hometown
And now you want to pull us down
But I can hope
And I can pray
And I will stay
