Stay Close Lyrics

Stand in the light
So I can see
The morning makes it bad
Sun beating low
Soon you will know
If love is the way
Soon you will go
Your own way
Yeah yeah

Stay close to me
Stay close to me
Stay close to me
Stay close to me

Blowing down the street
To see you one more time
Is the world still at your feet?
And you let somebody love you
One day you'll feel
The way I feel
Soon you'll go
Your own way
Hey

Stay close to me
Stay close to me
Yeah yeah yeah
Stay close to me
Hey yeah
Stay close to me
Yeah yeah yeah

Stay close to me yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Stay close to me
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
We gonna live free
Yeah
Stay close to me

The cowboys in the railway station
I gave up on news
The common hall at 3am
Said how'd it go
Yeah how'd it go today?
One day you'll know
In days
The sun down is calling home
Your waking up
The radio

Stay close to me
Yeah yeh
Stay close to me
Hey yeah
Stay close
Stay close to me
Stay close
Stay close
Stay close to me
Stay close to me
Stay close to me
Stay close to me
Stay close to me
Stay close
Stay close

At first glance (and given the picture of a double bed in the album cover) it seems fairly obviously a song about the end of a romantic relationship.

I think it can also work, though, as a song from a father to an adult child. Coming to terms with his separation from them, seeing the future that lies ahead of them Try it on, see if you like it.
