Slow Leaves - Stick Around Lyrics

Stick Around
(Written by Grant Davidson)

Well the gate's got a broken latch
A roof that needs another patch
When I close the door, I might not come back
I'll fade away

And if I've lost what I hoped to find
Hit the light on the closing sign
I'd trade it all for a clever rhyme
Stick around, if you have the time

I turn the clock cause I couldn't sleep
Window's up just to feel the breeze
I hear a moth scratching at the screen
I float away

Here I wait for the coming storm
I wait for nothing and nothing comes
I won't bore you with what went wrong
I wrote it down in another song

I look ahead, more hills to climb
I come up short almost every time
In a winter coat with a nursery rhyme
I hide away

I held your hand and you held the door
Is this place worth fighting for?
I want it all and a little more
Stick around

I watch the wind move across the lawn
I look around but the feeling's gone
I'd lose my head if it weren't held on
Stick around
