Stays

(time is not linear that's why it doesn't feel like that much time has passed) [Verse 1] I'm sitting alone in the dark in my living room and I wonder how this is my life I stare at the flames that dance in the fireplace and I can't believe I was your wife I'm lying alone in the dark in my bedroom on the bed that we once shared I sigh and close my eyes just so I can Imagine that you're there [Bridge] It seems like another lifetime Was it all a dream or were you really mine? [Chorus] Oh You used to tell me time was not linear and I used to smile because you were so deep And now I realize how smart you were cuz I think of your words when I cannot sleep Oh I know it's been years since you left but it truly feels just like days So I guess it's true that grief's not a straight line And the love we had still stays [Verse 2] I lock all my doors when I go to sleep at night I wish you were here to protect me And it really seems just like yesterday you were the one that would do this for me I sit outside in the sun and swing in my hammock and try to comprehend the last few years It's still hard to believe how life just carries on while every day I lose so many tears [Bridge] It seems like another lifetime Was it all a dream or were you really mine? [Chorus] Oh You used to tell me time was not linear and I used to smile because you were so deep And now I realize how smart you were cuz I think of your words when I cannot sleep Oh I know it's been years since you left but it truly feels just like days So I guess it's true that grief's not a straight line And the love we had still stays It only seems like days since you went away and the love we had when we parted ways the love we had still stays It always stays! Oooh Oooh [Electric guitar solo] [Chorus] Oh You used to tell me time was not linear and I used to smile because you were so deep And now I realize how smart you were cuz I think of your words when I cannot sleep Oh I know it's been years since you left but it truly feels just like days So I guess it's true that grief's not a straight line And the love we had still stays It only seems like days since you went away and the love we had when we parted ways the love we had still stays It always stays! Oooh Oooh It always stays... Oooh [electric guitar solo] It always stays...
