lyrics

when you know what's gonna happen, but it hasn't happened yet
when nothin' in your past is left to regret
when you try to remember, but you just forget
and you shed a single tear while the sad sun sets

ain't it a wonder you've come a long way
since the world opened its eyes to you that day
i don't always have the right words to say
but if it ain't too much of me to ask
won't you stay, won't you stay?

when the room stares into you like you're a giant elephant
and you know you've been wrong, but you're too weak to repent
when a hole burns in your pocket from the money you have spent
and you're too lost to appreciate the sentiment

all along the avalanche is gaining speed
and you can't escape a storm you're trapped beneath
like anything, it's only temporary
you will find the storm will clear when you're ready

ain't it a wonder you've come a long way
since the world opened its eyes to you that day
i don't always have the right words to say
but if it ain't too much of me to ask
won't you stay, won't you stay?
