Ten Mile Tide - Stay With MeLyrics

I went sailin' out to the farthest seas I went lookin' for answers and she came to me I said, I don't know what to do She said just stay with me, stay with me I'd been up and down and all around I'd been in every little corner of every little town I said, I don't know where to go She said just stay with me, stay with me Well, the sun was going down and it was getting late And the winding road ahead held a winding dose of fate I said, I don't know just where to turn She said just stay with me, stay with me I looked at her, and she looked at me And the signs were all there, it was so easy to see She reached out and took me by the hand And said just stay with me, stay with me So I dropped my pack and I sparked up a light And the fire grew high and her eyes glowed bright I said, I don't know what to do She said just stay with me, stay with me (Chorus): Why don't you Stay the night with me Well she opened her basket and there was plenty to share As my lonesome guitar soothed the cool evening air I said I've got some places I've gotta go She said just stay with me, stay with me I started strummin' a tune and it went something like this It was soft it was smooth like a velvety mist I said I don't think I am what you need She said just stay with me, stay with me Well, as the fog rolled in she drew closer to me, Until the fire and her was all I could see I said I can't allow myself to fall for you She said just stay with me, stay with me Then she reached out gently and put her hand on the strings Said I'm not lookin' for love, I'm not lookin' for rings I know you don't got those to give I wish you'd stay with me, stay with me So I dropped my guitar and I looked in her eyes And the charm that was there made me gasp in surprise And as she drew me in, I knew I was falling fast And she said just stay with me, stay with me (Chorus) I woke up at dawn, but she wasn't around And though I looked so hard, she was not to be found I said my girl where have you gone Why didn't you stay with me, stay with me I searched and I scrambled and I searched some more But the wind was arisin' my ship was too close to shore I said my girl where have you gone Why didn't you just stay with me, stay with me Then I found her note, and it said she was gone And I understood then why she set off alone It said I walked away, but I wanted to stay And have you stay with me, stay with me Well, I'm sailin' now across unknown seas But when I listen closely to the evenin' breeze I swear I hear a whispered voice that says Just stay with me, stay with me So I'm headin' back, but I'm not there yet Though it gets so hard when I see the sun set And a voice inside my chest cries out Just stay with me, stay with me (Chorus)
