lyrics

We fell in hard and fast
You knew it wouldn’t last
You chose to let me in
Now I’m just sinking
Now I can’t swim

And I’m wondering why you’re wondering
How it got to be this way
And I’m thinking trying to figure out
Just why you went away
And I’m wondering why got me weak
and left me here this way

Won’t you stay
Won’t you stay
Won’t you stay

We’re tearing at the seams
I’m wondering what you mean
You say it’s the wrong time
Everything’s not right
Everything’s not fine

And I’m wondering why you’re wondering
How it got to be this way
And I’m thinking trying to figure out
Just why you went away
And I’m wondering why got me weak
and left me here this way

Won’t you stay
Won’t you stay
Won’t you stay
Won’t you stay
