Lyrics
Don?t Leave -- Copyright Cynthia Post, gOA Music, BMI
Wait. I forgot to say
Home is where you are and you?re not on my long, long list of regrets
My longing for the moon has set us up for gloom, but even I can?t sink the boat
Don?t leave, don?t leave, don?t leave
Stay. I have more to say
If you can stand the chatter and the bang and the clatter
Of everything that I could not achieve crashing into me
Don?t leave, don?t leave, don?t leave, don?t leave
I?ve been climbing and I found I could hit the ground instead of touch the sky
Cause leaning out too far could get you into trouble
Leaning out too far could get you into trouble on the double
Stay. I just want to say
Home is where you are and even I wont sink that boat
My longing for the moon has set us up for gloom
So, just ignore the bang and clatter and the chatter
Just ignore the bang and clatter and the chatter, let it scatter
Wait, wait.
Don?t leave, don?t leave, don?t leave, don?t leave
