"The Fear Of Standing Still" lyrics

"The Fear Of Standing Still"

The sky today was an extra special shade of lonely
The birds have all flown south and looks like winter's on its way
I'm stuck here on a airplane outside of Cincinnati
With the last words that I heard this morning ringing in my ear

Don't go, please stay
Whatever's waiting on you way out there, can wait another day
There'll always be a song to sing, another show to play
Don't go, please stay

The road has been calling my name as long as I remember
Behind the wheel was the closest thing I've ever come to calling home
That was until I met you, kid, and finally found some purpose
You cured me of a sickness that I never knew I had

Don't go, please stay
Whatever's waiting on you way out there can wait another day
There'll always be a song to sing, another show to play
Don't go, please stay

You taught me that there was more to life than a constant state of motion
Introduced me to the fine art of staying in one place
So when the fear of standing still asks if I like the path I've chosen
I find the answers in the corners of the smile on your face

Don't go, please stay
Whatever's waiting on you way out there can wait another day
There will always be another song to sing, another show to play
Don't go, please stay

Don't go, please stay
