Lyrics

I walked by the lake, right by the place where the stairs go straight in
My mind filled with thoughts of how I used to want rocks in my pockets
And I gave thanks for grace and I went on my way
Thinking oh how things change when you can stay

I have stood in the rain til I could feel the drops on my skin
I have waited in vain and then waited again for something right to begin
I know what it feels like to fall in a pothole in the middle of the path I’m on
Try to climb out and silent screams in my mouth while I learned to be strong

To stay oh stay oh how things change when you can stay
stay oh stay I know that things can change when you can stay

Oh, and sometimes you’ll need to hand.
And sometimes you’ll feel like you’ve got no place to land.
But if you can just hold on hold on
I promise you will find a way to move on

If you stay, stay, I promise things can change if you can stay.
Stay stay oh how things can change if you can stay

For the life I lead now I could never see how I would make it all the way
All I can say is the best will be waiting if you stay
