I Would Stay

(album: Nothing Less - 2000)

If this is true, I thought then, what will I think
Will I stay or rather I would get away
I'm scared that I won't find a thing
And afraid that I'll turn out to be alone

But I
I have to learn, have to try, have to trust I have to cry
Have to see, have to know that I can be myself

If I could I would stay
And if they're not, not in my way
I'll stare in the distance
But I'll grow up to be just like you
Yeah, I'll grow up to be just like you
Yeah

I see it all I'm sure but do I know what's right I thought I knew
But it turns out the other way
I'm scared that I won't find a thing and afraid that I'll turn out to be alone

But I
I have to learn, have to try, have to trust I have to cry
I have to see have to know that I can be myself

If I could I would stay
And if they're not not in my way
I'll stare in the distance
But I'll grow up to be just like you
Yeah, I'll grow up to be just like you

I wanna tell you
Why would I try to
You are all that, you're all I can see now
Why would I try to

And I want to tell you
Why would I try to
You are all I can see now
I know I'll try to

I have to learn, have to try, have to trust I have to cry
I have to see have to know that I can be myself

If I could I would stay (yeah)
And if they're not not in my way
I'll stare in the distance
But I'll grow up to be just like you
Yeah, I'll grow up to be just like you
Like you
