Stay Now Lyrics

Daylight comes, daylight comes
and you’ve gotta go
Breaks my heart, breaks my heart
to have to watch you go
Wish I knew, wish I knew
when you’ll be back again
However long, it’s just too long
until we meet again

Stay now, stay now
just a little more
Coz this love, this love
is what living's for
Stay now

Hide in bed, sheets overhead
blocking out the sun
Feel like we are marooned at sea
away from everyone
And I, I hate to say goodbye
I, want you to touch me one more time

Stay now, stay now
just a little more
Coz this love, this love
is what living's for
Stay now, stay now
just a little more
Coz this love, this love
is what living's for
Stay now
Stay now
Stay now

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think this is about being in an almost relationship where you love them but for some reason they want to keep it casual and non-committed.

She wants him to stay longer and not leave in the morning... but she can't really tell him those things... or that she's falling for him. Haven't we all been there? :(

This song is absolutely incredible! It makes me want to cry... because this is how I feel.... If it could just last a little longer.... When you want somebody to stay....
