Stay Lyrics

She was a drifter, loved to move around

Meeting new people from these old towns

Travelling for years yet she's only 22

Working on the land the only thing she knew

Met a boy, lived out need Boggabri

At the local pub after work one Friday night

And he stole her heart with just one kiss

She'd never felt a love like this

The only thing agains her was the time

And he said "Stay, I'll be lost without your smile"

And a tear drop came into her eye,

She whispered to him her goodbye

"I'll see you round, maybe give you a call. But I'll never stay."

Packed up and left, determined to move on

She headed west, found work and a new home

But he crossed her mind in bed at night

She wondered what it would be like

To settle down and plant roots of her own

What if I'd stayed? Would I be lost in my own world?

And a tear drop came into her eye,

She suddenly just realised

Is it too late to turn around? I should have stayed...

Well it takes time to learn the ropes of life

And she thought she knew it all

And she was thinking as she pulled into his drive

Well it was the worth the ride cause now I know for sure..

"I'm here to stay, cause I was lost without your smile

And a tear drop came into her eye

She whispered to him her goodnight

"I'll see you in the morning after all. I'll always stay..."
