I want you to stay,
til I can be brave,
til I walk away, safe and steady,
til I’m in the light that you carry.
If you go I’m goin’ too,
cuz it was always you, alright.
And if I’m turnin’ blue, please come save me,
nothin’ left to lose without my baby.
Birds of a feather, we should stick together, I know,
I said I’d never think I wasn’t better alone.
Can’t change the weather, might not be forever
but if it’s forever, it’s even better…
And I don’t know what I’m cryin’ for,
I don’t think I could love you more,
It might not be long but baby, I…
I’ll love you for the rest of my life,
for the rest of my life,
while the stars fill the sky,
for the rest of my life.
I want you to see,
how you look to me.
You wouldn’t believe if I told ya,
you would keep the compliments I throw ya
But you’re so over it,
tell me it’s a bit.
Say you don’t see it, your mind’s polluted,
say you wanna quit – you’ll pull through it.
And I don’t know what I’m cryin’ for,
I don’t think I could love you more,
might not be long but baby, I…
don’t wanna say goodbye.
Birds of a feather, we should stick together, I know,
I said I’d never think I wasn’t better alone.
Can’t change the weather, might not be forever
but if it’s forever, it’s even better…
I knew you in another life,
you had that same look in your eyes,
I love you, don’t act so surprised…
