How many times alone I've felt that I'm not okay- I'm not okay Without the thought of all my friends and a love- I know a love's embrace For all the times I tried to see what was chasing me and holding me down I count the nights stood sleeplessly, as the ceiling caught me staring I'm waking up with one eye open to keep my dreams inside of me And I, I do it so I might believe that there's some escape to what I see I catch a phrase to ease the pain, but it seems I'm still untying I feel the age surround me now in this place I've felt a love somehow And won't you please come and stay a while? Won't you please relate? And won't you please come and lift me up? Won't you please, today? Troubled thoughts a given sign from the lover's eyes that clouded mine I'm finding broken thoughts tonight on the way I want to feel alive I tried to say the blame should be on the man I see who isn't me But now I've come to find only that this is me unraveling And won't you please come and stay a while? Won't you please relate? And won't you please come and lift me up? Won't you please, today? And won't you please come and stay a while? Won't you please relate? And won't you please come and lift me up? Won't you please, today? Please Oh, Please --- .
