Long time since I've seen your smile,
|
But when I close my eyes,
|
I remember
|
You were no more than a child,
|
But then so was I,
|
Young and tender.
|
|
Time carries on;
|
I guess it always will,
|
But deep inside my heart
|
Time stands still.
|
|
Stay for awhile.
|
Well, it's good to see your smile,
|
And I love your company.
|
Stay for awhile.
|
And remember the days gone by;
|
For a moment it can seem
|
Just the way it used to be.
|
|
Snowfalls, phone calls, broken hearts,
|
Clear summer days,
|
Warm and lazy;
|
Long walks, long talks, after dark;
|
We vowed we'd never forget.
|
Now it's hazy.
|
|
Time takes its toll,
|
And time alters our view.
|
It would be nice to
|
Spend some time with you.
|
|
Oh, stay for awhile.
|
Well, it's good to see your smile,
|
And I love your company.
|
(Oohhh) Stay for awhile.
|
And remember the days gone by;
|
For a moment it can seem
|
Just the way it used to be.
|
|
Stay....
|
|
(Please stay.)
|
|
Stay, stay, stay....
|
|
One, two, one, two.
|
|
Stay for awhile.
|
Well, it's good to see your smile,
|
And I love your company.
|
(Oohhh) Stay for awhile.
|
And remember the days gone by;
|
Just the way it used to be.
|
|
Stay for awhile.
|
Oh, it's good to see your smile,
|
And I love your company.
|
Won't you stay with me for awhile,
|
And remember the days gone by;
|
For a moment it can seem
|
Just the way it used to be.
|
|
(The way it used to be. Be.......
|
The way it used to be, ooohhhh, aaaahhhhhh. Ooooooooooooooh.
|
Now, now, now, now.... Hoohhhhhh....)
