Stay (Faraway, So Close!) - Songs Of Surrender

Green light, 7-Eleven
 You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
 You don't smoke, don't even want to
 Hey now, check your change
 Dressed up like a car crash
 Your wheels are turnin' but you're upside down
 You say when he hits you, you don't mind
 Because when he hurts you, you feel alive
 Oh no, is that what it is?
 Red lights, grey morning
 You stumble out of a hole in the ground
 A vampire or a victim
 It depends on who's around
 Used to stay in to watch the adverts
 You could lip-synch with the talk shows
 And if you look, you look through me
 And when you talk, you talk at me
 And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing
 If I could stay, oh, stay
 If I could stay, if I could stay
 If I could stay, and the night would be enough (stay)
 Faraway, so close
 Up with the static and the radio waves
 With satellite television, you can go anywhere
 Miami, New Orleans
 London, Belfast and Berlin
 And if you listen, I can't call
 And if you jump, you just might fall
 And if you shout, I'll only hear you
 If I could stay, then the night would give you up (stay)
 If I could stay and the day would keep its trust (stay)
 If I could stay with the demons you drowned (stay)
 Stay with the spirit I found (stay)
 Stay, and the night would be enough (stay)
 Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
 Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
 Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
 Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
 Three o'clock in the morning
 It's quiet, and there's no one around
 Just the bang and the clatter
 As an angel runs to ground
 Just the bang and the clatter
 As an angel hits the ground
