Summary: They say you should try everything once. Well my one crack at perhaps the toughest genre of all.




Stay A Little Bit Longer

Somewhere there's a part
of my secret heart
that wants so much to say
if only you will stay
just a little bit longer
then we will never part

Been a rocky road
I'm a heavy load
when I get down and blue
take it out on you
stay a little bit longer
I'll repay what you're due

It ain't just the booze
gives me black day blues
it's hard to let you see
the deepest part of me
stay a little bit longer
baby stay, set me free

Just scared, being two
only me and you
never felt this before
risking love more and more
stay a little bit longer
stay with me, see it through.
