Alison Moyet Stay Lyrics

Stay Lyrics

I wait in hope of every day

Changes come as changes may

With every fear that I allay



I have a horror of this place

Yet I'm accustomed to it's face

And I am safe within it's maze



But you leave me nothin'

In my hometown

And now you want to pull us down



But I can hope

And I can pray

And I will stay



I traced my way from Bluebell Hill

To the park and further still

Onto the rise beyond the mounds



And from this point I could see

My life in it's entirety

Mapped before me on the ground



But you leave me nothing

In my hometown

And now you want to pull us down



But I can hope

And I can pray

And I will stay



Let the cold air bite my face

For I am angry at this place

Wherein nothing stays the same



It breaks my heart to let you go

When deep inside us we both know

That you will not be back again



But you leave me nothing

In my hometown

And now you want to pull us down



But I can hope

And I can pray

And I will stay
