Stay

Oh the English rain
 Seems to follow me again
 All the way from Sintra Portugal
 It's where I met you just one year ago
 Oh sweet memory (riding motorbikes down to the sea)
 Didn't feel like reality even when it was happening
 And I want everything to stay
 The same as yesterday
 I want everything to stay the same
 I saw you board the Paris train
 Your little halo hung sideways
 You didn't know I was there to see you go
 Standing in your furs and your arms around another fool
 Oh tortured memory (Ceasar Paciotti's standing in the city square)
 You smothered everything, just when it started happening
 And I want everything to stay (I wanted to stay)
 The same as yesterday
 I want everything to stay the same (I want it to stay)
 Love is a deadly potion
 Stabs the heart and bleeds emotion
 And now nothing is the same again
 Oh the politics of love
 Oh the politics of love and not feeling loved
 I know you, you doubted me all along
 Even when I told you that you were the one
 And in the street I left a lonely rose
 That no one knows, and no one knows, and no one knows
 But me
 I want everything to stay
 The same as yesterday
 Want everything to stay the same
 Love is a deadly potion
 Stabs the heart and bleeds emotion
 Love is a chain reaction
 We just thought it was attraction
 And I never wanted to change (and now you forced me)
 And I never wanted to change (and how you forced me)
 And I know it for a fact
