SYML - STAY CLOSE Lyrics

SYML Lyrics

"STAY CLOSE"

I know mourning is mourning and we heal differently
Right now it's all I see
In my brokenness, I found some peace
This mourning wakes my memories
When I got it wrong and you let me know
When I got it right and you told me so
Slow at first but it's rushing now
When I look for you and you're not around
Don't let me drown

I want to keep you forever my love
But wanting is never enough, so stay with me
I need somebody, to save me
I'm caught in a flood, stay with me, stay with me
I want some more time, I can't give you up
One lifetime is never enough, so stay with me
More than a body, you're more than my heart
You're my blood, stay with me, stay with me

If there's no cure and there's no medicine
Do we count the days until the end
We've got the count, the fix is in
It's been decided before it begins
Stay close, stay close
No, I can't stay here and let you go
I lost my faith but heaven knows
It can't be your time to go
Can't stay here and let you go

I want to keep you forever my love
But wanting is never enough, so stay with me
I need somebody, to save me
I'm caught in a flood, stay with me, stay with me
I want some more time, I can't give you up
One lifetime is never enough, so stay with me
More than a body, you're more than my heart
You're my blood, stay with me, stay with me

Stay close
Let's see the world you've never seen before
Stay close
Let's drink it up, swallow it whole
I lost my faith
Clear at first but you're fading out
Take my hand don't leave me now, don't leave me now
Stay close

I want to keep you forever my love
But wanting is never enough, so stay with me
I need somebody, to save me
I'm caught in a flood, stay with me, stay with me
I want some more time, I can't give you up
One lifetime is never enough, so stay with me
More than a body, you're more than my heart
You're my blood, stay with me, stay with me

Stay with me, stay with me
Stay with me, stay with me
Stay

"This is a personal song," said SYML about "Stay Close". "My father has been slowly dying of pancreatic cancer for almost two years. It's certainly about grief, but it's also about a love so deep, it runs from our first breath until our last. It covers every experience we'll ever have, and it goes beyond us when we leave this place. It's almost supernatural but I know it to be real because I can sense it fully."

SYML worked on this song with producer Paul Meany with mixing done by Joe Visciano. SYML said about the collaboration, "People like Paul and Joe act as mirrors instead of wrecking balls. They showed me different angles of my songs and creative process that have ultimately made each better. When you find people like that to collaborate with, it's a feeling of equal parts excitement and humility." He also added, "Usually I would isolate myself while creating a song like this, but it was a moving experience working with an insanely talented group of folks. Paul Meany brought an amazing heartbeat that gave this song life, Taylor Johnson added this ethereal color, lifting the song into the sky, and Charlotte Lawrence danced above it all with her angelic, touching vocal."
