Stay and fill me up with something else You’re all that’s left and I’ll be Picking up the pieces of our past Like broken glass
Affection ruptures lonely nights But I’ve always been the last in line For romance Captive among lonely hearts Are all we are Captive behind broken hearts Are all we are
So lovely can I stay the night And baby if I said that I’ll be back tomorrow This might be a bit shy from the truth As lonely as the days that we begin to follow
Somehow we become those walls we build (Somehow) Somehow we lose the urge to feel Somehow I’ve become the lesser man We become products of ourselves
Slave to despair Despair to aspire A real lovers love The profound beating of this chest A poetic type of touch That reminds us who we are
The feeling, the rhyming rhythm Recalling wounded thoughts Still seeming a little tempted To set these sheets aflame As your eyes close
So lovely can I stay the night And baby if I said that I’ll be back tomorrow This might be a bit shy from the truth As lonely as the days that we begin to follow
(2x) He finds that it’s worth more As he’s slipping out the back door
(2x) So lovely can I stay the night And baby if I said that I’ll be back tomorrow This might be a bit shy from the truth As lonely as the days that we begin to follow
