Stay

I've been on this search for love to come
How will it find me
I looked at the reasons I've begun
They don't remind me
I give myself over every time
I'm looking forward
But it always ends up I'm the one
Going nowhere

So I wait under cover for another day
And dream of a lover whose love for me will stay

I look at the hearts I know
They're always broken
They chalk it up to experience
And call it progress
I've grown indifferent to the game
It's all a program
When winning and losing feel the same
Why am I hoping?

Love has a cover there's a price you pay
I'll wait another whole life for love that can stay

I know you're out there
Will you wait for me?
Will you stay with me?

I'll wait under cover for another day
And dream of a lover whose love for me will stay

When I lock the door and settle in
My conscience warns me
It always seems like loneliness
It just becomes me
I would promise you eternity
You could always trust me
Until you call for me to stay
Where I don't want to be

So I wait under cover for another day
And dream of this lover who knows my pain
I will wait for another whole life for the day
I will wait for a love I will wait for love to stay
