Stay
Beth Lyrics

We were walking
Beth and the person she is with were taking a walk together.

Just the other day
This event took place recently.

It was so hot outside
The weather was very warm.

You could fry an egg.
The heat was so intense that Beth describes it as being able to cook an egg on the pavement.

Remember you were talking
The person Beth is with was speaking at this point in their walk.

I watched as sweat ran down your face
Beth took notice of the sweat on the person's face.

Reached up and I caught it at your chin
Beth wiped the sweat from the person's face with her hand.

Licked my fingertips
Beth licked the sweat off of her fingertips.

We were just wasting time
Beth and the person she is with were passing time without any specific goal or aim.

Let the hours roll by
They allowed the time to pass by without concern for how much time had gone by.

Doing nothing for the fun
They were not doing anything in particular, except to enjoy spending time together.

A little taste of the good life
Beth and the person she is with were enjoying a pleasant moment together as a small indulgence in life's pleasures.

Whether right or wrong
Despite any potential misgivings or consequences, they still wanted to spend more time together.

Makes us want to stay, stay, stay for awhile
This enjoyable moment in each other's company was incentive enough to remain together for a while longer.

Then later on the sun began to fade
As the day progressed, the sun began to set.

Then the clouds rolled over our heads
The change in the weather caused clouds to form over them.

And it began to rain
It started to rain, potentially causing the need to end their time together outside.

Oh, we were dancing mouths open
Despite the rain, they continued to dance happily and without regard for the elements.

Splashing tongue taste
They were kissing passionately, while the rain splashed on them.

For a moment this good time would never end
The moment they were experiencing felt eternal, as if it would never come to an end.

You and me
The two people involved in the situation they were experiencing were Beth and the person she is with.

Just wasting time
Again, they were not doing anything specific, they were simply enjoying their time together.

I was kissing you,
Beth describes the moment when they were kissing each other.

You were kissing me love
Beth and the other person were engaging in a mutual exchange of physical affections.

From good day into a moonlight
The moment they were experiencing extended from daytime to nighttime, as the moon appeared in the sky.

Now a night so fine
The night was perfect, pleasant, and enjoyable.

Makes us wanna stay, stay, stay, stay for awhile
They did not want this feeling of being together to end and wanted to remain together for as long as they could.

Makes you wanna...
This happy, enjoyable moment with the person you love could make you want to stay together for longer.

Makes me wanna...
Beth herself is expressing how much she wants to stay with the person she is with.

Don't it make you wanna?
Beth is asking the other person how they feel about staying together for longer in this happy, pleasant moment.

Wasting time
They were still enjoying their time together without any specific goals, and they were content with it being a waste of time from a productivity perspective.

I shall miss this thing
Beth knows that this moment is fleeting and will pass, and she will look back on it fondly in the future.

When it all rolls by
The moments they are experiencing will end like many things in life do.

What a day...
Beth is describing how wonderful and special the day has been.

Come on love
Beth is encouraging the person she is with to stay with her for longer and continue to enjoy their time together.

Makes me wanna, makes me wanna stay.
Beth is expressing how much she wants to stay with this person in this moment of happiness and reminiscing about the romantic and fun moments they shared together.

Makes me wanna, makes me wanna stay... don't it?
Beth is asking the other person if they share her feelings about wanting to remain together.

Make you wanna stay... don't it?
Beth is asking the other person if this moment makes them want to stay together for longer.
