[Verse]
Yesterday, like a storm of rain your soul wept to mine
And all your veins began to pulsate coinciding with mine
Your gentle face on my vertebrae, you are fire to my skin
I couldn’t melt with you
This could end with you before we let it begin
And I swear you’ve answered the prayers of a lonely child

[Chorus]
So why won't you stay a while?
Hold me 'til the sun's flame blows out
I want you real close to me
Our lips fall so tenderly
And you are my only dream
And only you can comfort me
Our hips fit so perfectly
I want you to stay with me
To stay with me

[Bridge]
Yesterday you lied to me
You're loving me too quietly
Look at what you've done to me
You stole the soil from under me
