[Verse 1]
Blinded by youth
In beautiful scenes
Now that you've got control
We only move to your beat
[Pre-Chorus]
Time isn't here, but it slows us down
Are you moving on 'cause you've grown out of this town?
Don't try and wait 'cause I need you here

[Chorus]
I said I want you to stay
'Cause baby, you're all that I know
I said I want you to stay
Stay with me
Stay, stay with me
Stay, stay with me
[Verse 2]

Got lost in the fields and argued with stars
Don't run away 'cause I need a sign

'Cause baby, you're all that I know
I said I want you to stay
Stay with me
Stay, stay with me
Stay, stay with me
[Bridge]
No one else can believe that we're breaking,
We're breaking
Lonely as ever before, I can shake it,
Sh-shake it
[Chorus 2]
And now I want you to stay
'Cause we've got too much to let go
I said I want you to stay
Stay with me
Stay, stay with me
Stay, stay with me
