"Stay" lyrics

How can I bear
To wake up and you're not there?
What will I do
When I turn and reach for you?

I lay my tears on the windowsill
I'll only cry 'til I get over you
But how long will it take me?
Won't you save me?

And stay
Just a little bit longer
'Til I'm a little bit stronger
(To take all this and)
Stay just a little more time
'Til I can find a way
Please stay

Will I ever smile again
When losing love takes my best friend?
To wonder where, wonder how
Wonder what you're doing

One more night just before you break me
Hold me safely

And stay (please, won't you stay with me?)
Just a little bit longer
'Til I'm a little bit stronger
(To take all this and)
Stay (just a little more time 'til I can find)
Just a little more time
'Til I can find a way
Please stay

So, I'll be a big girl and close my eyes
As you walk away, don't say goodbye
God save me

Please won't you

Stay (please, won't you stay with me?)
Just a little bit longer
'Til I'm a little bit stronger
(Take all this and)
Stay (just a little more time 'til I can find)
Just a little more time
'Til I can find a way
Won't you stay?
Just a little bit longer
