David Kauffman Stay Close To Me Tonight
That long lost look in your eyes says you’re in trouble
The distant smile that you smile is just a disguise
You’ve been hiding inside, a lonely pretender
The only companion left to you is pride
Somewhere in yesterday you must have wounded
The cut is deep and the scar never quite closed
So who can blame you for thinking
You’ll only be mended
By covering over your heart and suffering alone
CHORUS:
Stay close to Me tonight, you should not be alone
I will wrap the wounds that harm your hurting soul
It’s gonna take some time for healing to take hold
Stay close to Me tonight, stay close to Me tonight.
You’ve tried so many ways to say what you’re feeling
How the damage was done and how it remains
But words can never explain as well as the silence
Come and be silent with Me and I’ll bear the pain
Chorus
Whatever you cling to that’s less that Me
Cannot heal your aching need
Trust your heart, do not hide
Come, be by My side
Chorus
