I'll Stay

from Broken Arm by Broken Arm

lyrics

I could say that I've been there,
paying my dues all along.
Put in the time to show I care,
I never skipped a step.

When I tell you now this means so much to me,
you should know I choose my words,
though it seems you never heard.
I will stay for just so long.

I took you for a drive down the Oregon coast.
The only time you loved me back.
You told me you felt so safe and close.
You had finally settled in.

When I tell you now this means so much to me,
you look away when I speak,
of things I hope to keep.
One day I'll shut down like you.

You would keep your reservations,
despite all the time I give to you.
I am distant with contemplation,
to decide if it's only worth this much.

When I tell you now this means so much to me,
I can only hope you know,
it can only help you know,
I will wait but not for long.

I could close my eyes and see a happy end,
with every girl I've known.
But with you it's hard to pretend,
too hard to pretend I will stay.
