Stay With You
John Legend · Get Lifted [2004]
We're growin stronger every day now
It feels so good and there is no doubt
I will stay with you
As each morning brings the sunrise
And the flowers bloom in springtime
On my lovin', you can rely
And I'll will stay with you
Oh, I will stay with you, through the ups and the downs
Oh, I will stay with you, when no one else is around
And when the dark clouds arise, I will stay by your side
And I know we'll be alright, I will stay with you
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Though relationships can get old
They have the tendency to grow cold
We have something like a miracle, yeah
And I'll stay with you
Oh, I will stay you, through the ups and the downs
Yes, I will stay with you, when no one else is around
And when the dark clouds arise, I will stay by your side
And I know we'll be alright, I will stay with you
And there'll be heartaches and pain, yes it will
But through it all we will remain, hey
In this life, we all know friends may come and they may go
But through the years I know, I will stay
And in the end I know that we'll find
A love so beautiful and divine
And we'll be lovers for a lifetime
And I'll stay with you
Whoa, I will stay with you, through the ups the downs
Yes, I will stay with you, when no one else is around
And when the dark clouds arise, I will stay by your side
And I know we'll be alright, I will stay with you
Yea everything will be fine, yea and I'll stay with you
Through the end of all time, I will stay with you
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
