Once I had a girlfriend
She made my heart just want to die
She just couldnt stay inside
Shell make you open up your eyes
Until youve cried yourself a river
Throw your hands up in the sky
To be by her side
Ill do anything if just to make her stay
Make her stay, to make her stay
Stay, count the time until youre mine
Will they ever know? We cant deny
The world outside just leaves us cold
Count the time until youre mine
Theyll never know
Oh, well compromise
The world outside just leaves us cold
Once she gave a reason
But the end just made me cry
A red sunrise outside
She made me open up my eyes
Until I finally looked around me
When I heard her soft reply
I cant pretend to try
Ill do anything if just to make her stay
Make her stay, to make her stay, stay
