Stay with Me Lyrics

Love, when you call my name
It sends me running into the flame
I love you, baby, so treat me right
Hold me closer in the middle of the night
Cause I love you, girl, and it's alright
Stay with me

Are you waiting? Are you standing guard?
There's nothing they can steal from us that isn't always yours
I love you baby, so treat me right
Hold me closer in the middle of the night
I love you, girl, and it's alright
Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me

Is that the speed of sound or the speed of light
The way you say my name feels so right
In the middle of the night, won't you call my name?
Don't worry, it's okay

I love you baby, so treat me right
Hold me closer in the middle of the night
I love you, girl, and it's alright
Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me

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 it’s about wanting somebody to stay even though you know they don’t love you as much as you love them.
