She Stays

She'd give everything
To hear him say he loves her
Seems like years
Since he told her so
And she longs for the way
He used to hold her
When the fire turned out
She doesn't know

In this day and age
She could walk away
No one would blame her

But she stays
She gets down on her knees
And she prays
And looks at the ring
That he gave her
And so, one more time
She makes up her mind
And she stays

She says something
Deep inside of her is dying
Loneliness cuts her to the bone
But he can't understand
The tears she's crying
And that leaves her feeling
Even more alone

She is strong enough
She could take her love
Go on without him

But she stays
She gets down on her knees
And she prays
And looks at the ring
That he gave her
And so, one more time
She makes up her mind
And she stays

Letting go of a man
Without leaving his side
Is so hard, it's so hard
But she believes in her promise
And she's holding on tight
With her heart, her heart

And so, she stays
She gets down on her knees
And she prays
And looks at the ring
That he gave her
And so, one more time
She makes up her mind
And she stays

And looks at the ring
That he gave her
She knows love will do
What she's asking it to
So she stays
