Name: Why Don't You Stay (Demo)
Duration: P00H03M36S
Description: From the love song archives. Very much a demo that needs work on melody and lyrical freshness but some ideas in there I'd like to preserve. Sorry I've been out of touch. I needed the time to get my mind, body and soul back on the same track. Not saying I'm there yet but got to keep on keeping on. Working on a new writing project. Might result in some songs! :)

lyrics

You know, with us I’m impatient
I couldn’t wait for the day
But love can’t be rushed and I’ve waited
Now there’s no time left to waste
Somehow the sun has moved passed us
So, darling, why don’t you stay

Let all the words go unspoken
Let’s run away with those thoughts
Set both our hearts back in motion
It’s not too late so, come on
Let’s get caught up in a moment
Let’s get turned on and on

Why don’t you stay the night
Why don’t we take our time
Why don’t we do this right
Up till the morning light
Why don’t you stay the night

I’m feeling high on emotion
Let’s stay awake till the dawn
When the day breaks I’ll be broken
If I awake and you’re gone
We don’t need sleep where we’re going
Let’s just go on and on

Why don’t you stay the night
Why don’t we take our time
Why don’t we do this right
Up till the morning light
Why don’t you stay
Why don't you stay

And if we get lost in love
Just follow the plan
The chart’s in the stars above
You’re right where I am
We’ll dream when the morning comes so, why don’t you…
Why don’t you stay, Why don’t you stay

Why don’t you stay the night
Why don’t we take our time
Why don’t we do this right
Up till the morning, up till the morning
Stay the night
Why don’t we take our time
Why don’t we do this right
Up till the morning light
Why don’t you stay ….the night

about

Laura Marie San Antonio, Texas

Now the reason we're here
Every man, every woman
Is to help each other
Stand by each other
When love walks in the room
Everybody stand up
Oh it's good, good good
Say I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you - The Pretenders

At some point in my life, I heard this song and decided (before I knew I decided) that my life purpose was to send a "message of love". Be <3 ... more
