I'll Stay

Settle down, I want you to come back home
You've been gone for way too long
& I've been waiting on your letters saying where I was wrong
Cause I know that it's always my fault
There's a chance that you've been thinking about making amends
& I'm thinking about taking a chance
& I don't know if you're aware but I'm falling apart
You think that you know me
You think you know just what I'm thinking
But I know what you're thinking
& I can still feel you breathing
& I'll stay
I won't go away
I won't let you down like I've done a thousand times
I'll stay
I won't go away
I won't let you down like I've done a thousand times before
It's like mama always said,
Sometimes you can't win for losing,
& I know when I'm losing you
& this house just seems so empty without you
& I keep telling myself that you'll come back, but I'm dreaming
I'm hoping you'll make my lies the truth & come back home
But you think that you know me
You think you know just what I'm thinking
But I know what you're thinking
& I can still feel you breathing
& I'll stay
I won't go away
I won't let you down like I've done a thousand times
I'll stay
I won't go away
I won't let you down like I've done a thousand times before
I'll stay
I won't go away
& I won't let you down like I've done a thousand times
I'll stay
I won't go away
I won't let you down like I've done a thousand times
I'll stay
I won't go away
I won't let you down like I've done a thousand times before
