Stay Forever
Khymera Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's been another night alone
I'm so tired of thinking now
I know I can't rewind the past
I (ve) tried everything to get by

I sometimes drive away
To a secret place where love remains
So don't turn away
Would you let me in?
Let me in

I'll make it last forever
I'll make it last forever
When summer days are gone
I'll be holding on
Stay forever

It's like you're half a world away
Do you miss me now in there?
I know the circumstance was right
We could find another day
Another day
I sometimes feel the sun
Still it burns my eyes
But I'm not blind

So stay where you are
And I'll wait for you
Wait for you

I'll make it last forever
I'll make it last forever
When summer days are gone
I'll be holding on
Stay forever

I sometimes drive away
To a secret place where love remains
So don't turn away
Would you let me in?
Let me in

I'll make it last forever
I'll make it last forever
When summer days are gone
I'll be holding on
Stay forever
I'll make it last forever
I'll make it last forever
When summer days are gone




I'll be holding on
Stay forever
