Make You Stay

Summer friend

Said you were leaving without saying when

Now sades of winder fade a deeper blue

A frozen pictures all that's left of you



Shimmering

A city sprawl beneath a neon sky

The future fading as you close your eyes

Lying awake through every dreamless night

That one last look gave you away

This time I thought Id make you stay



Suddenly

Those endless summers are a memory

A world that wasn't ever meant to be

An empty space that no-one else could see



Helplessly

Drowned in the darkness of the deepest night

You came back to me and made it right

Twisting, pouring every breath of life

That one last look gave you away

This time Id thought Id make you stay



Warm as a feeling

Warm as a thought you can't explain

Cold as a winter

Cold as the frozen tears on your face

Wide as the future

Wide as this open empty space

Silent and broken

Yesterday seemed so far away



I thought Id make you stay

Id make you stay

But one last look gave you away
