Story Behind the Song
Ashley and I were friends for about 3 years. Both of us liked the other, but neither of us wanted to say anything because of the whole "friends" thing. The tension finally got to be too much for either of us to handle and it almost pushed us apart, thus the first verse. We worked through it and finally got together, thus the second verse. Just before I left to go to college, I lost my mind somehow and broke things off, and before I realized what I had really done, what was left of our relationship deteriorated, leaving me no chance to reconcile. C'est la vive. (Such is life) God works in mysterious ways.
Lyrics
Verse 1:
It's been three weeks since your star fell from my sky.
And now the tears fall, like raindrops from my eyes.
Now the sun won't shine and the birds won't sing.
When I lost you, I lost my everything.
Chorus:
And now I'm down on my knees girl.
Begging you please girl.
Come back into my life.
Because I need you beside me,
to hold me, to guide me
through the perils of this world.
Stay here with me through my life.
Stay in my dreams through the nights.
Stay with me.
Verse 2:
It's been three years since you became my wife.
And I can't help but smile when I look into your sweet brown eyes.
You make the sun shine bright and the birds sing sweet.
My love you complete me, you're my everything.
Chorus 2:
And now I'm down on my knees girl.
Begging you please girl.
Stay here with me in my life.
Because I need you beside me,
to hold me, to guide me.
Through the perils of this world.
Stay here with me through my life.
Stay in my dreams through the night.
Stay with me.
Interlude
Verse 3:
It's been three weeks since your star fell from my sky.
And now the tears fall like raindrops from my eyes.
But, the sun still shines and the birds still sing.
Even though, I've lost my everything.
Chorus 3 and outro:
Now I'm down on my knees girl,
Begging you please girl.
Watch over me from on high.
I need your spirit beside me,
to hold me, to guide me.
Through the perils of this world.
Stay here with me through my life.
Stay in my dreams through the night.
Stay with me.
