Stay

All I ever wanted was for things to stay just the way the were You were a friend of a friend. Practically a stranger ... I just wanted you to stay away But you became an acquaintance. You were around quite a bit, but only because we had the same friend We weren’t hanging out together, just in the same room ...That’s how I wanted it to stay But you became my friend. We talked, we laughed. I could hang out with you and be comfortable ...All just fine and dandy, as long as that is how it stayed But you became my best friend. I told you secrets, I cried with you I knew you wouldn’t betray me ...I hoped this is how it would stay But you became my boyfriend We hugged and kissed, we cuddled and giggled ...That’s how I wanted it to stay But you became my world I couldn’t even begin to picture my life without you. Every moment with you was precious. It all seemed so perfect ...I just wanted you to stay But you became a memory Just a bitter sweet tale of a love gone wrong I wish you had just stayed or stayed away
