Stay Awhile

Come on and stay awhile beneath the waning light

Come on and stay awhile I'll be right by your side

Come on and stay awhile and hold on while you can

My friend

Oh won't you stay while 'til we get home again

Come on and look at all the life, the hoax, the mend

Come on and look at all the frightened hesitance

Come on and peek behind the curtain while I flinch

My friend

Oh won't you stay while and make this home again

It goes, come on repeat the words I'm told, come on inside

But I can't afford the lightning she cried

Oh no I can't afford the lightning and I've tried

To see the golden blue

Come on pacify beneath the dawning night

Come on and pass the time I'll be right by your side

Come on and stay awhile, I'll hold on while I can

My friend

Oh won't you stay while 'til we get home again

It goes, come on repeat the words I'm told, come on inside

But I can't afford the lightning she cried

Oh no I can't afford the lightning and I've tried

To see the golden blue
