You Stay with Me

TV flashes down the hall

Paintin' pictures on the wall

And you're still sleeping on my knees

And in the glow of silver light

I trace the lines above your eyes

Just another wrinkle that you can blame on me

But I can hear the current of the freeway in the distance, if I keep listenin'

And I wonder if you ever thought of streamin' off, somewhere with it

Am I not what you thought? Will you get tired of what you got?

If I can't give you anymore

Than weathered ships and distant shores

Would you still be my compass? Yeah

'Cause you keep lovin' me the same

I don't know how but you still stay with me, baby

You stay with me, baby

Another day, another week

We'll slip back in old routines

'Til nights like these come in between

Simple moments in the dark

Ones that life can't tear apart

They come along, oh just when we need

And still hear the current of the freeway in the distance but I stop listenin'

'Cause I know you'll stay even though the waves are always shiftin'

We're fightin' our way through, I guess I always knew

If I can't give you anymore

Than weathered ships and distant shores

Would you still be my compass? Yeah

'Cause you keep lovin' me the same

I don't know how but you still stay with me, baby

You stay with me, baby

'Cause you keep lovin' me the same

I don't know how but you still stay with me, baby

You stay with me baby, oh you stay with me

TV flashes down the hall

Paintin' pictures on the wall

And you're still sleeping on my knees
