FLYLEAF LYRICS - Stay (Faraway, So Close)

"Stay (Faraway, So Close)"



[U2 Cover]



Green light, seven eleven

You stop in for a pack of cigarettes,

You don't smoke, Don't even want to,

hey now, check your change

Dressed up like a car crash

The wheels are turning but your upside down

You say when he hits you, You don't mind

Because when he hurts you, you feel alive

Oh, is that what it is



Red lights, gray morning

You stumble out on a whole in the ground

A vampire? or a victim? It depends on whose around

You used to stay up to watch the adverse,

You could to lip sing to the talk shows.

And if you look, you look through me,

And when you talked, its not to me

And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing



If I could stay, then a night would give you up

Stay, and the day would keep its trust

Stay, and the night would be alive

Far away, So close

Up with the static on the radio

With satellite, television

You can go any where

Miami, New Orleans, London, Belfast, and Berlin



And if you listen I can call

And if you jump, you just might fall

And if you shout I'll only hear you



If I could stay, then a night would give you up

Stay, and the day would keep its trust

Stay, with the demons you drowned

Stay, with the spirit I found

Stay, and the night would be alive.

Ohohohoh

Ohohohoh

Ohohohoh

Ohohohoh

Three o' clock in the morning

It's quiet and there's no one around.

Just a bang and a clatter,

As angel runs to ground.

Just a bang and a clatter,

As angel hits the ground.
