Wish I Could Stay

We cut the hours from eight down to four We met in a town that I've never been before It 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, darlin', 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 is 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 it's been 20 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"?
