Time To Stay

(album: The Big Fantasize - 2020)

When you're out of magic mornings
And no sign that love is on your side
When you're stoned and alone and bound for breaking down
Yet you want to resolve this some way

Younger days you'd have walked away
You'll live on, love another
If you run you'll be safe

It's time to stay when
The thought of running leaves you
In the end you want all that weight
It's time to stay when
All the time you've been here
What you wanted just got made

Almost out at the touch of dawn, and you
You lay down 'cause you've come some long way
You allay in your own mistaken mind
All those months of doubt in that warm light

And you know you see more this time
In the mornings through the miles
You'll hear somebody say

It's time to stay when
All the time you've been here
We never fall the bus stop can wait
It's time to stay when
The thought of running leaves you
In the end you want all that weight
It's time to stay when
All the time you've been here
What you wanted just got made

She saw love in a bad light

Storms when they came dissolved your pain
And those ghosts faded from around your door
When you're up late at night

No longer put love on trial
You're coming down, coming out of disguise

It's time to stay when
It's time to stay when
It's time to stay when
All the time you've been here
You never fell the bus stop can wait
It's time to stay when
In all the time you've been here
Not a doubt it does stop the pain
Not a doubt it does stop the pain
