Stay

from Gleewood by Gleewood

lyrics

I pour myself another cup of coffee,
Winter’s leaking through my window pane.
The sun is up and waitin’ on me,
I’m just not ready to start the day.
Slide my arm into the jacket my babe bought me,
Step out into the snow that was freshly lain.
Boots n’ hat n’ scarf upon me,
Half way down the drive when I heard you say…

Won’t you stay?
You said wont you stay

I turned to meet your eyes still full of sleep,
Standin’ barefoot in snow ankle-deep.
Without even tryin’ you flashed me a smile,
Made me stop in my track, made me feel like a child.

And this child never felt more like a man
Than when you shouted my name and you held out your hand.

Won’t you stay?
You said wont you stay

I stumble through the words lookin’ for the verse,
That was written on my heart and not over-rehearsed,
But I got caught up on ”I love you”
So, I thought that line could bare one more use.

Sometimes life just gets in the way,
Livin’ in the future not livin’ for the day.
Thank you for steppin’ up and steppin’ outside,
Life just ain’t good without a good surprise.

Won’t you stay?
You said won’t you stay

Well that snow it fell and it fell some more,
Burying the future that was pounding on our door,
And that future may still be poundin’ away,
But I just focus on the words that I heard you say
