From the recording While the Night Is Still Young
Lyrics
Stays
Calman Hart
She doesn’t love him and she don’t know why
It’s just a feeling that died
She tries to tell him but she starts to cry
Every time
When he asks what’s making her blue
She tells him it’s just a bad day
Then she looks in his eyes
And stays
She wrote a letter and it said goodbye
It was all she could think of to say
She tore it up before the ink was dry
And threw it away
She’s going out of her mind
She can’t go on living this way
But she looks in his eyes
And stays
She knows that he’s crazy about her
She knows that he’d be lost without her
It breaks her heart to think of him alone
So she tells herself it’s not so bad
And it’s wrong for her to feel so sad
But she’s lying to herself
Her heart is somewhere else
Lying together in the bed at night
He reaches for her hand
He says “I love you” and she starts to cry
Again
When he asks what’s making her blue
She tells him it’s just a bad day
Then she looks in his eyes
And stays
