Stay
Don't ya stay away too long
Don't ya stay away too long
Away too long
Stay

Don't ya stay away too long
Don't ya stay away too long
Come on back to the days (place) you remember
Don't ya cry for one more day
Just hear me say (I just want to say)
Don't stay away too long

A worm just met that apple
Sitting in a tree and she said:
"Oh, you're burin that hole inside of me"
Then he said "I'll break that sentence right now and set you free"
Then she said " Go, but come back again, don't stay away too long"

Now young Jessie lost her father
Round when she was three and she said:
Why, my daddy, in hell did you leave me?
You've left me empty and misguided
With eyes too young to see
I'm falling right behind ya pop
Cause you stayed away too long"

Only heaven knows the pain you've been hiding from
I don't care, no I don't mind,
I just hope you find
You've stayed away much much too long

Don't ya stay away too long
Come on back to the days we'll remember
We were young and life was kind
Now I just hope you'll find
You've stayed away much much too long
