If I Could Stay Lyrics

I wake and find myself too tired for this
It seems we're losing ground with each and every kiss

I'd be fine if I could stay
I'd be alright if I could stay
And please, I beg, just let me stay away from you
I'd be fine if I could stay
I'd be alright if I could stay
And please, I beg, just let me stay away from you

Through many it years, it seems
We've played this game
And every hand I'm dealt
It leaves me, well it leaves me the same

I'd be fine if I could stay
I'd be alright if I could stay
And please, I beg, just let me stay away from you
I'd be fine if I could stay
I'd be alright if I could stay
And please, I beg, just let me stay away from you

I know we tried so hard to make this work
But, God damn, after all this time, you'd think I'd learn

I'd be fine if I could stay
I'd be alright if I could stay
And please, I beg, just let me stay away from you
I'd be fine if I could stay
I'd be alright if I could stay
And please, I beg, just let me stay away from you

I'd be just fine, I'll be just fine

I wake and find myself too tired for this
It seems we're losing ground with each and every kiss

I'd be fine if I could stay
I'd be alright if I could stay
And please, I beg, just let me stay away from you
I'd be fine if I could stay
I'd be alright if I could stay
And please, I beg, just let me stay away from you

Through many it years, it seems
We've played this game
And every hand I'm dealt
It leaves me, well it leaves me the same

I'd be fine if I could stay
I'd be alright if I could stay
And please, I beg, just let me stay away from you
I'd be fine if I could stay
I'd be alright if I could stay
And please, I beg, just let me stay away from you

I know we tried so hard to make this work
But, God damn, after all this time, you'd think I'd learn

I'd be fine if I could stay
I'd be alright if I could stay
And please, I beg, just let me stay away from you
I'd be fine if I could stay
I'd be alright if I could stay
And please, I beg, just let me stay away from you

I'd be just fine, I'll be just fine

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.
