[Verse 1] I dozed off, just for a second And the old days came back round High school hall, your voice found me To the plain girl in the back row You spoke so kind, so casually Like it was nothing at all I smiled so hard it scared me Like my chest might leave the floor [Pre-Chorus] I thought, “Is this real?” My hands went cold My heart lifted up And lost control [Chorus] You talked to me You talked to me The clouds were holding me You took my hand Then I ran away I thought the world would break (Please stay) (Please stay) (Please stay with me) (Please stay forever) [Verse 2] On Christmas, I turned and fled From the warmth of your hand Snow on my cheeks, breath shaking Like the sky had split in two At the shrine in winter We talked for hours and hours Cold stone, red gates, our footprints Two small voices in the dark [Pre-Chorus] And that summer day Was only ours A tiny sun Inside my heart [Chorus] You talked to me You talked to me The clouds were holding me You took my hand Then I ran away I thought the world would break (Please stay) (Please stay) (Please stay with me) (Please stay forever) [Bridge] All those days are gone now But they never left me They became my treasure Hidden soft inside me Now I’m here with you And the room is glowing Soon our little treasure Will be coming home [Final Chorus] You talked to me You talked to me The clouds were holding me You took my hand I ran from fear But still you found me here I’m clumsy, I know I’m not always strong But I will hold on (Please stay) (Please stay) (Please stay with me) (Please stay forever)
