You'll Stay
GoldaineI still see your coat on the back of my chair,
Left it here last June, guess I like it there
You said you’d call when the summer was through,
Guess the cold came faster than you
And I keep telling myself it’s fine,
That people fade, they take their time
But every song and streetlight glow,
Feels like a place we used to go
’Cause half of my heart’s still driving your way,
Still hears your laugh in every café
You were the calm I couldn’t keep,
The one that haunts me when I sleep
And half of my heart still thinks you’ll stay
Your name’s still carved in the bench by the pier,
It’s fading slow, but it’s crystal clear
I tried to paint over what we were,
But love’s a stain that just won’t blur
And I keep telling myself it’s fine,
That people fade, they take their time
But every song and streetlight glow,
Feels like a place we used to go
’Cause half of my heart’s still driving your way,
Still hears your laugh in every café
You were the calm I couldn’t keep,
The one that haunts me when I sleep
And half of my heart still thinks you’ll stay
