Gabrielle Aplin - Stay Lyrics

Life is like a circus wheel
And I never know how to feel
You're still living in the way back then
But I never meant to hurt you or to lose a friend
'Cause time's gone by on a runaway train
And there's nothing we can do to bring it back again

But you
You're looking at me
Just say what you want
Just say what you need
'Cause I
Was meant to be free
And come as I go
And go as I please

Did you think I'd stay?
Well, you should turn the other way
'Cause we're never going back again
All you did was stay
Holding on to yesterday
Well, it's never coming back again

Life, a couple hundred miles away
And I remember you like it was yesterday

So why
Why you looking at me?
It's not what you want
It's not what you need

Did you think I'd stay?
Well, you should turn the other way
'Cause we're never going back again
All you did was stay
Holding on to yesterday
Well, it's never coming back again

You can stay in the past, you can live a lie
Say I've changed, call me cold, call me what you like
And never know what it's like on the other side

You can stay in the past, you can live a lie
Say I've changed, call me cold, call me what you like
And never know what it's like on the other side

Did you think I'd stay?
Well, you should turn the other way
'Cause we're never going back again
All you did was stay
Holding on to yesterday
Well, it's never coming back again

You can stay in the past, you can live a lie
Say I've changed, call me cold, call me what you like
And never know what it's like on the other side
(Never know what it's like on the other side)

You can stay in the past, you can live a lie
Say I've changed, call me cold, call me what you like
And never know what it's like on the other side
(Never know what it's like on the other side)
