[Verse 1]
I'm waitin' up, savin' all my precious time
Losin' light, I'm missin' my same old us
Before we learned our truth too late
Resigned to fate, fadin' away
So tell me, can you turn around?
I need someone to tear me down
Oh, tell me, can you turn around?
But either way
[Chorus]
Hold me while you wait
I wish that I was good enough
If only I could wake you up
My love, my love, my love, my love
Won't you stay a while?
[Verse 2]
Tell me more, tell me something I don't know
Could we come close to havin' it all?
If you're gonna waste my time
Let's waste it right
[Chorus]
And hold me while you wait
I wish that I was good enough
If only I could wake you up
My love, my love, my love, my love
Won't you stay a while?
I wish you cared a little more
I wish you'd told me this before
My love, my love, my love, my love
Won't you stay a while?
[Bridge]
This is you, this is me, this is all we need
Is it true? My faith is shaken, but I still believe
This is you, this is me, this is all we need
So won't you stay a while?
[Chorus]
I wish that I was good enough
If only I could wake you up
My love, my love, my love, my love
Won't you stay a while?
I wish you cared a little more
I wish you'd told me this before
My love, my love, my love, my love
Won't you stay a while?
[Outro]
Stay a while
Stay a while
My love, my love, my love
Won't you stay a while?
Thanks
I'm waitin' up, savin' all my precious time
Losin' light, I'm missin' my same old us
Before we learned our truth too late
Resigned to fate, fadin' away
So tell me, can you turn around?
I need someone to tear me down
Oh, tell me, can you turn around?
But either way
[Chorus]
Hold me while you wait
I wish that I was good enough
If only I could wake you up
My love, my love, my love, my love
Won't you stay a while?
[Verse 2]
Tell me more, tell me something I don't know
Could we come close to havin' it all?
If you're gonna waste my time
Let's waste it right
[Chorus]
And hold me while you wait
I wish that I was good enough
If only I could wake you up
My love, my love, my love, my love
Won't you stay a while?
I wish you cared a little more
I wish you'd told me this before
My love, my love, my love, my love
Won't you stay a while?
[Bridge]
This is you, this is me, this is all we need
Is it true? My faith is shaken, but I still believe
This is you, this is me, this is all we need
So won't you stay a while?
[Chorus]
I wish that I was good enough
If only I could wake you up
My love, my love, my love, my love
Won't you stay a while?
I wish you cared a little more
I wish you'd told me this before
My love, my love, my love, my love
Won't you stay a while?
[Outro]
Stay a while
Stay a while
My love, my love, my love
Won't you stay a while?
