Take The Car Swimming - If You Stay Lyrics

Early morning, autumn day
Rain is pouring, on my face
Down it falls, and I feel the same
How's the pain the only thing that don't wash away
The middle is not a good place to be
I'm stuck between the devil and the deep blue sea
And I'm, feeling fine
Then here it comes again
Maybe it's something that I cannot prevent
Anytime, far away or close to home
I'm just looking for someone to call a friend
Won't you be my, won't you be my, won't you be my friend
I've been lonely, and I won't lie, I will not pretend
Cause I don't mind, I don't mind, I can wait
I'd be fine, I'd be fine if you stayed
Watching strangers from my bar seat
In the corner and they don't see me
I take a drink, and sit alone as they talk
And the faces wash away
Like chalk pictures on the sidewalk
I feel their eyes, watchin mine
Nothing behind them just back and forth like sands of time
I can't decide, if leaving is the thing to do
Cause somehow every place I leave I'm somehow also leaving you
I'm another man, just looking for direction
A glimpse of what was once somebody's picture of perfection
And, here I am, staring down a lonesome road
I'm just looking for someone to call a friend
Won't you be my, won't you be my, won't you be my friend
I've been lonely and I won't lie, I will not pretend
Cause I don't mind, I don't mind, I can wait
I'd be fine, I'd be fine if you stayed
I don't mind, I don't mind, I can wait
I'd be fine, I'd be fine if you stayed
