Stay Awhile

The best part of a small town is we’ve got time
We’ve got parking lots for days
We don’t need to rush or worry about being late
The best part of this feeling is that it’s true
My heart keeps beating songs for you
I value the simple moments
Reclining in my state

You like my sense of humor
And I like the way you smile
And we both love long conversations
So why don’t you stay
Why don’t you stay awhile

You like to dance to music
And I like to sing about you
And we both love long conversations
So why don’t you stay
Why don’t you stay awhile
Or maybe for a lifetime

The worst part of the feeling
Is the risk you take
You put your heart out there on a plate
Before your will grows tired
You’ll find the gold that comes after the fire
The more I get older the clearer I see
The misconceptions embedded in me
We can love, we can fail, it never goes out of style

Or maybe for a lifetime we can spend each day
Keeping each other on the right track
All the tough moments be vulnerable
Speaking our truth never look back
Spinning around inside our circle

Taking their shots but we won’t crack
