Stay

(앨범: Love, War And The Ghost Of Whitey Ford - 2008)

I just can't do it, not anymore
Every time I fake a smile, feel just like a whore
I just can't do it, it's beyond my means
And all I know about love, reading fashion magazines
I just can't do it, it can't be done
That's just what I say, 'cause I know I'm not the one

And I've been moving for so long
Life's a million miles away
And I'm the one that made you strong, girl
But I could not make you stay

I just can't do it, it's much too hard
I drive around alone at night, up and down the boulevard
I just can't do it, I feel so old
It looks like the sun is shining but the wind is blowing cold
I just can't do it, it's gone too far
I sit at home alone at night, just wondering where you are

And I've been standing still so long
My mind's a million miles away
I'm the one that made you strong, girl
But I could not make you stay

I just can't do it, no matter how hard I try
You don't come around anymore but I know the reason why
I just can't do it, it's way too late
I hang on with all my might, I can't accept this fate
I just can't do it, I feel so bad
I sit around and think, about all the chances that I've had

And I've been hurting for so long
You're a million miles away
And I'm the one that made you strong, girl
But I could not make you stay
But I could not make you stay
No, I could not make you stay
