Stay With Me

The Ark · Arkeology [2011]

I didn't mean to cause you pain

I didn't mean to cause you trouble

I never meant in any way

To be a weight on your mind



And all this time I've been so goddamn stubborn

All this time

So selfish and unkind



Stay with me, stay with me

Stay with me, stay with me

What in the world could make me feel so real?

Only you can make my life worth living



All this time I've been afraid

That you would see through me

That beneath the tricks and traits

There would be nothing to love



And no one has ever

Reached so deep into me

No one has taken me

So high above



Stay with me, stay with me

Stay with me, stay with me

What in the world could make me feel so real?

Only you can make my life worth living



And it's cold outside

And I'm on the streets tonight

If this pain is just an illusion

Will you show me what's real tonight?



Oohh

Stay with me, stay with me

Stay with me, stay with me

What in the world could make me feel so real?

Only you can make my life worth living

Oh, stay with me
