Inspired by Glenn Hughes song, “Why Don’t You Stay”
You’re like a breath to my prayer
You’re silence and joy everywhere
You’re the star that glows in the night
You’re the warmth in the sun’s light
Don’t let the madness of yesterday
Leave you feeling like going away
I won’t let you feel lonely, all I can say
Is I feel so lost when you refuse to stay
Listen to my voice in your mind
Believe me, honey, you’re one of a kind
When I said that I love you, I meant for all time
Living without you feels almost a crime!
Listen to me, darling, listen and know
Reflected inside are feelings who show
Without you beside me, I feel so lost
Listen, darling, so you’ll realize the cost
Don’t leave, honey – stay beside me ‘til the end
Let love be your guide and you’ll be my best friend
Never leave me, darling – I’ll always love you so
Take my hand, sweetheart, and we’ll dance real slow
