Clemmons, Riley - I'll Stay Lyrics
It's hard to find the words sometimes
It's hard to write a pretty rhyme
When all I hear is a symphony
Of things that don't make sense to me
"Everything will be okay"
When I can't say anything
That takes the weight of everything
And I can't make a rainbow out of rain
I can't write a song to heal the pain
But I'll be standing here while the world turns away
I won't pretend like I can save the day
Say the words to make it all okay
But while the world turns away
I'll stay, I'll stay
You're stuck with all the "could have beens"
The worst is playing in your head
And every doubt is echoing
And it feels like no one's listening
But I'm listening
And I can't make a rainbow out of rain
I can't write a song to heal the pain
But I'll be standing here while the world turns away
I won't pretend like I can save the day
Say the words to make it all okay
But while the world turns away
I'll stay, I'll stay
When it all comes crashing down
breaking down, you hit the ground
I'll be the one
If it feels like there is no defense
Life can hurt and make no sense
But I'll be forever here, here...
I won't pretend like I can save the day
Say the words to make it all okay
While the world turns away
I'll stay, I'll stay
I'll stay, I'll stay

Clemmons, Riley I'll Stay Comments
powerful song my copy of that cd brought me here love it long story short i put her cd in my stereo and layed down in bed played the whole cd and this song came on awesome song praise god
Riley Clemmons and Tauren Wells should do a collab!
You just made a song to heal the pain I just was in so much pain then when I listened to this song it made me feel better
I’m currently listening to this as I am driving to my friends memorial. She was only 16. God is soo good but I need her here. Beautiful song
Marissa G Berry
I was listening to “fighting for me” that Riley sings on the way to my friends funeral. She was only 16 as well. But this song just describes it more than anything else can. 💔
Wow those really high notes when she hit , my heart stopped for a moment ...
She's the reason I can now sing in three octaves. As well as Britt Nicole, whoee! Insane! I love it tho!!
It’s amazing ,and hitting the notes isn’t even the sturggle,it’s hitting them with such a strong tone like she does and right on point ...
@Alina Buzulan Aw yes. If u listen to Riley Clemmons Fighting for Me the piano version, there's a big long high not that I can finally got really nicely!
I want someone to sing this to me, but no one seems to be there. It's a sorrowful reminder when I listen to this song.
all the 35 haters out there this song means alot to other people so dont dislike
i love this song i just found it today and it has already meant so much to me
I never thought that I would be able to identify with the phrase "Life can hurt and make no sense" like I do, but praise God that He will make everything new some day.
You live in my Heart
is song touc spiret
What beutfoul song ❤
I just heard Riley in concert in Tennessee. Big voice. Great emotion. She is a good songwriter. If you hear that she is in your area, go and see her for yourself. What a blessing.
My name is Dwight I'm no body well I used to be somebody now just someone with so many regrets but in the last three years I came close to believing that I'm worth the air I breathe it's funny how life works my passion is singing I truly don't remember a time I didn't song or dance and I can remember more then I care to remember love I believed was the answer to all my problems I thought truth truly would set me free I was wrong !! This is a sobbing story but look at the bright side no will have to hear me again !!
Thanks your so awesome ! These words oh my Lord !!!
So perfect! <3

I can feel the story that's in your heart. It's ironic how most of the best original songs come out of the hardest seasons, yet, it springs a really powerful testimony. God bless you, have a fantastic day/night!

I'll Stay- Riley Clemmons
[Verse 1]
It's hard to find the words sometimes
It's hard to write a pretty rhyme
When all I hear is a symphony
Of things that don't make sense to me
"Everything will be okay"
Sounds like an empty phrase
When I can't say anything
That takes the weight of "Everything"
[Chorus 1]
But I can't make a rainbow out of rain
I can't write a song to heal the pain
But I'll be standing here while the world turns away
I won't pretend like I can save the day
Say the words to make it all okay
But while the world turns away-ay-ayy
I'll stay-ay-ayy, I'll stay-ay-ayy
[Verse 2]
You're stuck with all the "could have beens"
The worst is playing in your head
And every doubt is echoing
And it feels like no one's listening
But I'm listening, oh-ohh-ooh
[Chorus 1]
But I can't make a rainbow out of rain
I can't write a song to heal the pain
But I'll be standing here while the world turns away
I won't pretend like I can save the day
Say the words to make it all okay
But while the world turns away-ay-ayy
I'll stay-ay-ayy, I'll stay-ay-ayy
[Bridge]
When it all comes crashing down, breaking down
You hit the ground
I'll be
If it feels like there is no defense
Life can hurt, it makes no sense
But I'll be
[Chorus 2]
I won't pretend like I can save the day
Say the words to make it all okay
While the world turns away-ay-ayy
I'll stay-ay-ayy, I'll stay-ay-ayy
I'll stay… I'll stay-ay-ayy
