Always To Stay
I love you
Is it time for me to go?
I dropped the anchor, so you would stay in the boat
I want you to always know
I love you
Even though you don't understand the fact
I love you
Even if there's a chance you won't come back
I love you,
and that will have to be that
You tell me you're struggling to breathe
The waves are wishing you away
I tell you I'm here
Always to stay
Is it time for me to go?
I dropped the anchor, so you could stay afloat
I'll miss you more than you'll ever know
I love you
Do you remember everything we had?
I love you
Even if there's a chance you wont come back
I love you,
and that will have to be that
You tell me you're struggling to breathe
The waves are wishing you away
I tell you I'm here
Always to stay
