Stay with me awhile and hold me close to you,
I can't make the nightmares cease;
It's futile, regardless of what I do,
I must have you near, that much, dear, is true.
Wrap your arms around me, put your hand in mine,
They drive away the demons;
And let the brightness shine,
Your a remedy for me, any place and any time.
Put your cheek against me, I want to feel your skin,
It banishes the misery;
Of what my life has been,
It wipes away the sorrow, and lets the lovelight in.
Stay with me awhile, and let your sweetness linger,
Drive away the shadows,
With the touch of your soft finger,
Your my angel of delight, and my happiness bringer.
Don't leave me for too long, I couldn't stand the wait,
The pits of hell close fast;
I need you at the gate,
So say you'll stay awhile, be my partner and my mate.
