Stay With Me - The Mission

Books and covers and part time lovers

Spinning in rooms in cities of rust

I’m stranded, struck out on this line

There’s smoke and fire and steel and wire

And glass and spire and dust

One to the floor at dawn with lips tied and drawn

Sleepless nights spent, with angels heaven sent

Stay with me, lay with me, lay down by my side

Stay with me, lay with me, take me deep inside

Lay with me, stay with me, lay with me

Stay, with me

Stay, with me

All of us lying there in the dreams

Speak of days and another place

I wander as the gypsy under a beckoning moon

Speak of time, and another face

They would in languid cry a fleeting furtive sigh

From the cradle to the grave love to desire and crave

Stay with me, lay with me, lay down by my side

Stay with me, lay with me, take me deep inside

Lay with me, stay with me, lay with me

Stay, with me

Stay, with me

I’ll laugh for you, and I’ll dance for you

But don’t ask me to shed any tears when I have to go

You are a joy and a pleasure to love and to hold

Your promises, are as pure as the driven snow

Passing shapes in the night the touch distraut and light

As you brightly shine, your love tonight is mine

Stay with me, lay with me, lay down by my side

Stay with me, lay with me, take me deep inside

Lay with me, stay with me, lay with me

Stay, with me

Stay, with me
