Cover art for Stay lyrics by Miley Cyrus

What I hear in this song is her basically saying she would give up her career to be with person, if he'd only ask. She even says if she had to, she would "choose" him. The choice is between the life she lives, always being busy, always having to travel, ect, and her relationship with this person, because the distance is affecting them.
