Lyrics
It seems I get the strength to talk late at night when I'm all alone.
Even when your with me this just doesn't feel like home.
So you wrap your arms around me, tell me that you'll never leave.
well my emotions aren't that simple I can't just wear them on my sleeve.
(CHORUS)
Tell me your not alone,
tell me your not afraid,
Tell me your the reason I was made,
Tell me I'll be alright
Don't let me turn you away,
Even though I'm leaving,
Make Me Stay,
Are you the one I've been looking for?
Is it you that I've seen in my dreams?
I'm scared as hell of losing you,
Sometimes I say things I don't mean.
So you wrap your arms around me,
And you look into my eyes.
You say I'm not the man you dreamed of,
but you see him deep inside.
It's not enough for you to stay here,
Not enough to let me go
Its not the life that I had dreamed of
But I'll never let it show
(CHORUS)
Tell me your not alone,
tell me your not afraid,
Tell me your the reason I was made,
Tell me I'll be alright
Don't let me turn you away,
Even though I'm leaving,
Make Me Stay,
Tell me your not alone,
tell me your not afraid,
Tell me your the reason I was made,
Tell me I'll be alright
Don't let me turn you away,
Even though I'm leaving,
Make Me Stay,
