[Verse]
I open my heart it’s a fragile thing
But they step in they step out like it don’t mean a thing
I’m just a ghost in a crowded room
A voice that fades too soon
[Prechorus]
I try I try but the echo stays
I reach I reach but they slip away
[Chorus]
Why won’t you stay for a while
Just a minute just a smile
Don’t turn away don’t leave me here
Stay for a while let me disappear
[Verse 2]
I plant my words but they never grow
They’re seeds in the wind lost in the flow
I laugh too loud to drown the ache
But it’s always me left in the wake
[Prechorus]
I try I try but the echo stays
I reach I reach but they slip away
[Chorus]
Why won’t you stay for a while
Just a minute just a smile
Don’t turn away don’t leave me here
Stay for a while let me disappear
