"Stay Close" lyrics

"Stay Close"

The dreams not dead
It’s just stuck in my head
They put me on meds
To try to keep me in bed
A visit from a friend
Gets me smiling again
But pain never ends
When I’m swallowing bread
With death at my door step
Any regrets
I thought about my girls
Last night and I wept
Why me god
Oh, oh, oh my god
Where did I go wrong
It’s on
I’m not dead yet
So I’m I sing this song
Hold on, hold on

[Chorus:]
Don’t leave my side tonight
Stay close till I close my eyes
Like a hurricane life goes by
I won’t stress I’m not done yet
Don’t leave my side tonight
Stay close till I close my eyes
I never wanna say good bye
Good bye

Mom you were good to me
Always saw the good in me
Even when they couldn’t see
A diamond in the dirt beneath
Life ain’t fare, but dang I’m scared
God heals I believe in prayer
This room is small
There’s a smell in the air
Like moth balls
And the nurses they stare
I’m writing this just in case, just in case
I don’t make it out
This life don’t waste
I tell every kid that lifes a gift
So go big, swing big and hit
If I knew I’d a come this far
I would of dreamed bigger
Yeah I would of dreamed bigger
Why me god
Oh, oh, oh my god
Where did I go wrong
It’s on
I’m not dead yet
So I’m I sing this song
Hold on, hold on

[Chorus:]
Don’t leave my side tonight
Stay close till I close my eyes
Like a hurricane life goes by
I won’t stress I’m not done yet
Don’t leave my side tonight
Stay close till I close my eyes
I never wanna say good bye
Good bye

My last breath
First step
No cure yet
More tests
Can’t flex
I get undressed
Healed or take me now
Take me out
I wanna fight
Another round

The best’s yet to come
Sticking to my guns
Run, I wanna run
Put my face in the sun
Coming to a stand still
Hands chilled
Moment that a man feels
Holding on I stand healed

[Chorus:]
Don’t leave my side tonight
Stay close till I close my eyes
Like a hurricane life goes by
I won’t stress I’m not done yet
Don’t leave my side tonight
Stay close till I close my eyes
I never wanna say good bye
Good bye
