Blue October - Stay with Me lyrics
[Blue October - Stay with Me lyrics]
Ten years old i got lost in the woods in the
Middle of the night
In the dark and rainy cold
Young and damp a summer camp
I was a funny little sleepwalker
So I didn't think to tie myself to
That oak tree before I fell asleep
When I stood up that night
Not knowing all the while
Where I'd end up when I wake up
Having slept walk for a mile
I found myself running barefoot almost
Naked through the trees
I was in my underwear with branches
Slapping on my face and knees
I ran on top the rocks wet
Cedar thorns and moss feeling nothing
Then the moon rose up and
I realized I was lost
Nowhere close to home for the
First time I was alone
Then the lightning struck and
The thunder shook
And I called out for my mom
Give me some attention that's what
I yelled into the night
Please come down and help me
Show me sympathetic light
I need someone close to me
If only for a minute
I'm not afraid of the dark
I'm just scared of what's in it
Stay with me
I had a dream last night that someone
Was taking my air from me
Creating ten times as many problems
As any human can solve
They said you don't try hard enough and
Shoes don't always come in pairs
They love you when they make you look
Good but despise you behind closed doors
With vague goals and deep cracks it told
Me I can do better than that
Living in the shadow of someone's
Light that won't turn on
You see misery isn't everything
And I'm still learning that
Just give me the chance to
Turn my light back on
Stay with me
In the words of my father
Yes I'm good enough yes I'm good enough
Light the heart of my father
Yes I'm good enough yes I'm good enough
With the hope and strength of an ocean tide
Stay with me
