So won't you please just stay with me
stay by my side just for tonight

Before too long we'll both be gone
too far to take or mend this break

Tomorrow I know you're gone
and even if I beg to come along
you won't say yes, you're pack to go
we're fading fast, so I guess I should have known

You're going home and you hate the phone
I guess two months is long enough to face this on my own
you've got me praying you'll say you're staying
it's too late, to change our fate

will you look back when you're gone
at this boring town at all
when we grow up way too fast
did we ever expect this to...last

(chorus) So count up all the stars that illuminate the road
and count them twice cause maybe then you'll know
the million shining times I never said things right
so please oh please stay with me tonight
