I'm sitting on the edge of the earth with my feet in the sea and my body in the ocean
I'm feeling heavy underneath sitting on another level lifted by the whole thing
Now I see you got a broken soul
How'm I suppose to fix it?
It's been that way from the start
Now you can see my ignorance
chorus:
I don't wanna lose you now
I don't wanna say goodbye
Baby, give me one more chance
At least wont you let me try?
I never thought I'd see the day
That I'd watch you slip away
I don't wanna have to say please stay
But i will say it
Please stay
I say
I said it
You give me life
Give me life
Forgive me
This compass lead me straight to you
I'm standing on the corner of the bridge with my spirit in the clouds and my mind it is floating
I'm screaming out loud to the cars and the crowd but they can't hear the whole thing
See you see I got a wounded heart
Then go ahead and mend it
It's been that way from the start
Now you can see my innocence
But, baby, with your squinted eyes and your feathered wings
It's not a surprise that I'm holding on to everything
chorus
I give you everything
You could steal this beating heart
The way I feel
Is the way I feel
Is the way I been feeling
If you left me
If you went away
How could I make you see?
How could I make you stay?
Please stay
Please stay
chorus
Please stay
I say
I said it
