Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
I just wanna impress you
You're an ace of spades
And tell me, can you see through
That I need you here with me?
Cause I've been searchin' for you everywhere
All hours of the day
Won't you come home with me?
You're shining like a diamond
And I wanna keep you safe

[Chorus]
So come a little closer
I want you to stay a while
We're not getting any younger
So why don't you stay a while?
My hopes and my dreams
Everything that I need
Is in your hands, don't you see?
I want you to stay a while
Stay a while

[Verse 2]
I'm sorry that I hurt you
Haven't called in days
And the time apart, it hurts too
Are we headed separate ways?
I don't wanna think of you
As someone else to end the pain
As you used to do with me
Yeah, I can't let you go now
It's too much for me to take

[Chorus]
So come a little closer
I want you to stay a while
We're not getting any younger
So why don't you stay a while?
My hopes and my dreams
Everything that I need
Is in your hands, don't you see?
I want you to stay a while
Stay a while

[Refrain]
(Stay a while)

[Chorus]
So come a little closer
I want you to stay a while
We're not getting any younger
So why don't you stay a while?
My hopes and my dreams
Everything that I need
Is in your hands, don't you see?
I want you to stay a while
Stay a while

[Outro]
Sorry that I hurt you (I want you to stay a while)
And the time apart, it hurts too (so why don't you stay a while?)
My hopes and my dreams
Everything that I need
Is in your hands, don't you see?
I want you to stay a while
Stay a while
(Stay a while)
