The weight of your words
Holdin' me up
And at the same time tearing me down
Now do I swim or do I drown
Split decisions make for bad intentions
Always talking but I never listen
I just hope we find a middle ground
That'll do for now
And I just wanted you to know
Life without you leaves me cold
Peace be still when you let go
Faces that you never show
All falls down like Jericho
Still move so professional
But I just wish you'd stay
Stay for a little while
But I just wish you'd stay
Stay with me
But I just wish you'd stay
Stay for a little while
Oh baby won't you stay
Stay with me
Don't you ask me bout my baby
Ya know she just doing fine
So possessive even in my lies
They'll never stand the test of time
As if I ever had a choice in the matter
My pockets gettin fatter
But what's it without you, without you baby
And I just wanted you to know
Life without you leaves me cold
Peace be still when you let go
Faces that you never show
All falls down like Jericho
Still move so professional
But I just wish you'd stay
Stay for a little while
But I just wish you'd stay
Stay with me
But I just wish you'd stay
Stay for a little while
(Your voice the sweetest sound)
Oh baby won't you stay
Stay with me
Making plans only laughter follows
You swear you know tomorrow
But baby hope outweighs fear
As long as you're right here
Blood in this water trying not to drown
Best believe I'm coming down
I just wanna see clear
As long as you're right here
