Stay, Stay, Stay, Stay,

We don't say goodbye any more

強がって無理して、我慢してたら
君の心が壊れるから
泣きたいなら泣いてしまえばいい
その涙が涸れ果て眠るまで

もう good night さあ good night
今日はおやすみ
せつないのも、寂しいのも
なにもかもみんなぼくのせいだ

触れあって 抱きあって
ただそれだけで
しあわせと思えた日々を
ぼくは忘れていたんだ

ないものねだりって、いわれるのなら
言い訳はしないよ、だけどやっぱり
諦めたら、きっといつか君を責めるだろう

ああ、なんで
傷つかずに生きてけたら…
傷つけずに生きてけたら…
そううまくいかないよ
夢だけじゃ君が足りない
愛だけじゃぼくらしくない
そうだろう?
この矛盾をどうすりゃいい?

でも、きっと、そう、きっと
すれ違うのも、ぶつかるのも、
追いかけんのも、
手をつかまれて止まるのも

終わりって
思っていたらできない
うらはらな心がまだ、
まだ求め続けてるから

Stay with you
Stay forever

決して二度と離さない

Stay,

もう good night
さあ good night
今日はおやすみ
心配ならいらないから
これからもずっと
そばにいる

こうやって
寄り添って
忘れかけてた
ぬくもりに目を閉じて
あの日のふたりに帰るんだ

Stay, Stay with me
Stay woo oh
Stay, Stay with me,
Stay with me,
Stay,
Stay,
