Will He Stay

Verse 1:

They ask me, "Are you seeing someone new?"

I tell them, "It's complicated, it's true."

Seven years, we've danced this strange ballet,

A love that lingers, yet it slips away.

He's everything I ever dreamed he'd be,

A perfect picture, just out of reach for me.

Obsessed, I'll say it, heart on my sleeve,

Waiting for a love he can't quite give.

Verse 2:

They ask, "When will the church bells chime?"

I just shrug, a ghost of a love in my mind.

Two years I've wandered, lost in his haze,

Haunted by the memory of his loving gaze.

Unwilling to move on, trapped in his spell,

Consumed by a love I know so well.

Still am...

Verse 3:

September nights, a text I sent,

A whispered hello, a message heaven-sent.

We talked and laughed, a spark remained,

A fragile connection, though love restrained.

Once a month we'd meet, a stolen embrace,

A fleeting moment, in time and space.

December's warmth, his touch so near,

A memory cherished, year after year.

Pre-Chorus:

The phone is ringing, my heart's in my throat,

A conversation coming, a truth to be spoke.

Seven years of history, hanging in the air,

A future uncertain, a love I still bear.

Chorus:

Seven years, a ghost, a dream,

Stuck in this love, it would seem.

He comes and goes, a fleeting touch,

Leaving me wanting, oh so much.

But now there's you, a love so new,

A tiny heartbeat, me and you.

Will he stay, will he go?

Only time will truly know.

Verse 4:

February's chill, a truth revealed,

A tiny heartbeat, a love concealed.

Conceived in love, or so it seemed,

A fragile hope, a waking dream.

But shadows linger, a memory's sting,

Seven years ago, the same sad thing.

A fear I carry, a love so dear,

Will history repeat, is the end so near?

Bridge:

I'm stronger now, than I used to be,

A mother's love, sets my spirit free.

If he walks away, I'll be okay,

My baby's love, lights up the way.

But oh, I hope, he'll understand,

The love we share, hand in hand.

A family's dream, a chance to grow,

Together or apart, my love will flow.

Chorus:

Seven years, a ghost, a dream,

Stuck in this love, it would seem.

He comes and goes, a fleeting touch,

Leaving me wanting, oh so much.

But now there's you, a love so new,

A tiny heartbeat, me and you.

Will he stay, will he go?

Only time will truly know.

Outro:

Where do we go from here, the path unknown,

But one thing's certain, my baby is here.

A precious gift, a love so new,

A strength I find, to see it through.

Will love prevail, will fear subside?

I hold on tight, to this precious tide.

My baby's love, lights up the way.

But oh, I hope, he'll understand,

The love we share, hand in hand.

A family's dream, a chance to grow,

Together or apart, my love will flow.

Chorus:

Seven years, a ghost, a dream,

Stuck in this love, it would seem.

He comes and goes, a fleeting touch,

Leaving me wanting, oh so much.

But now there's you, a love so new,

A tiny heartbeat, me and you.

Will he stay, will he go?

Only time will truly know.

Outro:

Where do we go from here, the path unknown,

But one thing's certain, my baby is here.

A precious gift, a love so new,

A strength I find, to see it through.

Will love prevail, will fear subside?

I hold on tight, to this precious tide.
