Don’t Stay

Oh, what a shame
We missed our last train
And our star was left
with no name
This is right when
A flame becomes cold
And we shouldn’t hold a grudge
It’s the end of the road

And you shouldn’t come by
Cause we said our goodbyes
And you might change your mind
If you see me cry

So don’t stay
When I ask you to stay
Don’t say all the things
I’ve been longing for you to say
Cause we know
At the end of the day
You should be on your way
Or else we’ll go astray

All said and done
The morning has come
But we can no longer
Feel the sun
I’ve been listening to a thousand
Love songs on the radio
They all say the same
‘Please don’t leave’ and ‘Don’t go’

I’m sorry,
But I’ve changed all the locks
I’ve taken your pictures,
Put them in a box
If you ever come back,
Then you will soon discover
That I had to escape
I’ll be sleeping for hours
