"Stay With Me"

once again your eyes make it hard to say goodbye 
so i'll just keep driving 
where do you wanna go? 
it doesn't really matter as long as you are here with me 
with me 
with me 

whoa, there's something in the air tonight 
something that makes me feel alive and i say 
whoa, what were the words that you said to me 
that made me feel so special now 

once again your eyes make it hard to ask you why 
so i sit here knuckles tight 
hands against the wheel 
your head against the glass and you mean so much to me 
to me 
to me 

whoa, there's something in the air tonight 
something that makes me feel alive and i say 
whoa, what were the words that you said to me 
that made me feel so special now 

whoa (stay with me) 
whoa (stay with me) 
whoa (stay with me) 
whoa (stay) 
stay with me 
cigarettes* and open air, hand in hand 
i said stay with me 
cuz every star that i see is brighter than the last 
so stay with me



*Cigarettes are gay so you can use “sittin in the open air” instead of cigarettes
and open air.hehehehe


This is a good song to sing for your girl when your driving in the car.
