Keep believing the things that you tell yourself Everyone needs something they can tell themselves To hold on to cause after all of it's said and done Confession is stay don't go Ooh it is Ooh now stay don't go At times you find that the truth is the best way out Sometimes telling the truth is the best way out And it's the wrong words that make you prick upi your ears When later alone Confession is stay don't go Ooh it is Ooh now stay don't go Confession is stay don't go Ooh it is Ooh now stay don't go Stay don't go

I know mourning is mourning and we heal differently Right now, it's all I see In my brokenness, I found some peace This mourning wakes my memories When I got it wrong and you let me know When I got it right and you told me so Slow at first but it's rushing now When I look for you and you're not around Don't let me drown I want to keep you forever my love But wanting is never enough, so stay with me I need somebody to save me, I'm caught in a flood Stay with me, stay with me I want some more time, I can't give you up One lifetime is never enough, so stay with me More than a body, you're more than my heart, you're my blood Stay with me, stay with me If there's no cure and there's no medicine Do we count the days until the end?

Watching through the windows I can feel the eyes on me Shift my shape and lay-low Bite my tongue between my teeth (oh, yeah) So, I keep my right hand to the wall, and my eyes on you Stay close, oh (yeah, yeah) We could get lost out here But I know (yeah) That we gon' make it out alive, yeah Caught me in the headlights Wishing I could run light-speed Pressure on my temples Weighing down, I'm on my knees (oh) So, I keep my right hand to the wall, and my eyes on you Stay close, oh, yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah) We could get lost out here But I know (yea, uh) (ooh-ooh, yeah) That we gon' make it out alive, yeah We gon' make it out alive Stay close (stay close, woo) Yeah-ah-ah, yeah-ah-ah

Green light, Seven Eleven You stop in for a pack of cigarettes You don't smoke, don't even want to Hey now, check your change Dressed up like a car crash Your wheels are turnin' but you're upside down You say when he hits you, you don't mind Because when he hurts you, you feel alive Oh dear, is that what it is? Red lights, grey morning You stumble out of a hole in the ground A vampire or a victim It depends on who's around You used to stay in to watch the adverts You could lip synch to the talk shows And if you look, you look through me And when you talk, you talk at me And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing If I could stay, then the night would give you up Stay, and the day would keep its trust Stay, and the night would be enough Faraway, so close Up with the static and the radio With satellite television You can go anywhere Miami, New Orleans London, Belfast and Berlin And, if you listen, I can't call And, if you jump, you just might fall And, if you shout, I'll only hear you If I could stay, then the night would give you up Stay, then the day would keep its trust Stay with the demons you drowned Stay with the spirit I found Stay, and the night would be enough Oh-oh-oh, ooh Oh-oh-oh, ooh Oh-oh-oh, ooh Oh-oh-oh, ooh Three o'clock in the morning It's quiet, there's no one around Just the bang and the clatter As an angel runs to ground Just the bang and the clatter As an angel hits the ground

Stars are aglow And tonight how their light Sets me dreaming My love, do you know That your eyes are like stars brightly beaming? I bring you and sing you A moonlight serenade Let us stray 'til break of day In love's valley of dreams You and I, a summer sky A heavenly breeze kisses the trees So don't make me wait Come to me, tenderly In the June light I stand at your gate And I sing you a song in the moonlight A love song, my darling A moonlight serenade We can stay 'til break of day In love's valley of dreams You and I, a summer sky A heavenly breeze kisses the trees So don't make me wait Come to me, tenderly in the June light I stand at your gate And I sing you a song in the moonlight A love song my darling A moonlight serenade Oh, oh, whoa A moonlight serenade Oh, let it be tonight Let it be tonight Tonight In the moonlight Let it be tonight Got to be tonight Tonight
