Wish I Could Stay

We cut the hours from eight down to four

We met in a town that I've never been before

Was too cold for walking, so we drove to some local bar

That look in your eyes felt like a kiss

I've never felt a moment I knew I would miss

So dance with me darling, hold on like you'll never let go

And don't take me away like night meets the day

I don't wanna be like the sun when it rains

Here in your arms, I feel so alive

I've never been so scared to die

But how do I escape when it's time to say

"I wish I could stay"?

You probably ignore it when other guys say it

And blame it on alcohol

And you won't admit it, you can tell that I meant it

'Cause love gets the best of us all

We came to meet, but we didn't know

We'd be talking like we'd spent twenty years down the road

That's what it's like to be two strays who ain't so alone

So don't take me away like night meets the day

I don't wanna be like the sun when it rains

Here in your arms, I feel so alive

I've never been so scared to die

How do I escape when it's time to say

"I wish I could stay"?

Yeah

Don't take me away like night meets the day

I don't wanna be like the sun when it rains

Here in your arms, I feel so alive

I've never been so scared to die

How do I escape when it's time to say

"I wish I could stay"?

But how do I escape when it's time to say

"I wish I could stay"?
