[Intro] [Instrumental Drop] [Verse 1] [Female] I keep my coat by the door Like goodbye lives here too Love once taught these shaking hands To leave before they do [Male] I see your eyes on the floor Like you expect the call Baby, I won't move like him I won't leave you at all [Pre-Chorus] [Female] I don't know how to trust When trust gets used like a knife [Male] Then let me be the hand That keeps you safe tonight [Female] If I stay... Will it break? [Male] If you stay... We'll make it right... [Chorus] [Male] Stay... Stay... Lay your heavy heart on mine [Female] I'm afraid... But I want to try... [Male] Stay... Stay... One heartbeat at a time [Together] Stay... Just stay... Stay... With me... [Post-Chorus] [Female] Ooh... Stay with me... [Male] I'm still here... [Together] Stay... Stay... [Verse 2] [Male] I don't chase what runs I don't beg what won't If I'm here, it's because I see What most men don't You got a sacred fire Under all that fear And I don't need a perfect day I need you near [Female] Nobody ever said Love could feel this real No grand parade, no empty words Just a steady hand to feel [Pre-Chorus] [Female] I keep waiting for the shoe to drop For the burn, for the full stop [Male] Look at me when I say this now I'm built for the real thing Not a man who leaves I'm a man who stays I'm the kind that plants my feet And stays where hope remains [Chorus] [Male] Stay... Stay... Lay your heavy heart on mine [Female] I'm afraid... But I want to try... [Male] Stay... Stay... One heartbeat at a time [Together] Stay... Just stay... Stay... With me... [Post-Chorus] [Together] Ooh... Stay... ooh... stay... [Male] Always... [Bridge] [Female] What if we let our hearts go And the story ends the same? [Male] Then we'll write another ending. We don't have to wear that shame. I can't promise there'll be no rain. But I promise you won't face it alone, again. [Female – whispered] then stay with me... [Male – softly] I'll stay Always... Stay... Stay... Stay... [Final Chorus] [Male] Stay... Stay... Lay your heavy heart on mine [Female] I'm ready to try... [Male] Stay... Stay... One heartbeat at a time [Together] Stay... Just stay... Stay... With me... [Female] You stood your ground And I found my own I will stay... I will stay... [Male] Right here... You're home... [Together] I will stay... I will stay... [Outro] [Female] Ooh... [Male] I'm still here... [Together] Stay... Stay... Ooh... Mm... Stay... Stay... Stay...
