Folk song written, performed and produced by Sean Ferree
Why didn’t I tell you to stay?
It just didn’t feel like my place to say
I thought to wait it out to another day
But I fear I may have turned you away
I want to be that someone you need
I’ll care for you and I’ll take heed
You’ll know I’ll be there, yes indeed
The best for us both, with Godspeed
You are my ideal woman, perfectly
You’re complete; you really impress me
Your honesty, especially
I’m begging you to stay, on bended knee
I’m trying to think clear
It’s so difficult when you’re not here
I keep telling myself that you’ll reappear
But I can’t hide the fear that you may disappear
Could I change your mind?
Oh God, if I could just rewind
This is the love I deeply wanted to find
If you leave I’ll be back in the same bind
Please, just give it some more time
I know it’s a tough mountain to climb
But if you leave, it would be such a crime
It would be just another broken rhyme
Please stay, don’t go away…
Give it more time, I’ll make it okay
I wish I could go back and tell you to stay
I swear, I’ll make it all okay
I guess I’ll just leave it up to fate
But it may all be too little too late
