Stay

The other day
I didn't want you to stay
I didn't like the direction
I had to compel you to take
I didn't think I would be unhappy
Now, I want you to stay

I can't believe that my actions and inactions took a toll on your life
Blessed was our encounter
Strange is our departure
From a bond that held us tightly
Against all odds
Trust me, I wanted you to be happy
Not for me to be unhappy
I want you to stay
Perhaps,forever

The other day, I was sad
I realised everything wasnt as perfect as you wanted
Your castle was crushing
And still, I couldn't help
I was disappointed
All I wanted was to see you happy
But....
I have caused a tear in our friendship, haven't I?
Things aren't as they used to be
The days of old!
I miss those times
But think twice about your decision
Don't go just yet
Stay for a while

Everyday I pray
That God should make you stay
By perfecting that which concerns you
Eventually
Everything will be perfect
Don't wander away
Just stay close to me
I will figure out a way to rescue your castle
I just need to buy some more time
Stay

I look at you often
Just to make sure you are smiling
Because I know your castle is falling
But don't lose hope
Everything will be fine
I believe in you


Just stay close
I'm close to finding a way out for you
I cry softly inside

Just stay, stay
