Please Stay



I hold your hand,
Our fingers intertwine.
It feels so right,
Like we're on cloud nine.

Don't let the stars burn out,
Don't let this get away.
I need to shout,
Because with you I will stay.

Don't leave, please don't,
I can't let you go, I won't.
This feeling is here to stay,
I need you here, today.

Don't let go,
Soon you will see.
Feelings show,
You needed me.

I hold my hand,
I still feel our fingers... entwined.
And now I stand,
So far... from cloud nine.
