Stay

Roch Voisine · I'll Always Be There [1993]

(James Campbell/Roch Voisine)



Ticking, clocking

Way past midnight

I can't go to sleep

Rolling, yawnin'

No one in sight

To hold me dear, and deep

Since I left my homeland in white

Where I'd rather be

Stolen daydream

And sleepless nights

Are all they left for me



Help me decide

As I lie awake

Should I pack my bags today

Help me survive

Make it go away

Make me turn around and stay



Walking voodoo

Thinking of you

Friends I left behind

Smiling faces

My memory traces

Keeps me on the line



Help me decide

As I lie awake

Should I pack my bags today

Help me survive

Make it go away

Make me turn around and stay



Burning bright and yet

Sinking low

Like a flickering light

On a winter's night

Must I keep on travelling alone

When I feel my heart

Turning into stone



Help me decide

As I lie awake

Should I pack my bags today

Help me survive

Make it go away

Make me turn around and stay
