Stay
Captured Moments of Love: Jay de la Cruz's 'Stay'
Lyrics
Still
Feeling motionless or calm
You have left me still
Despite your absence, I remain still
Stuck holding my breath from the moment that I caught you
Feeling breathless since I first noticed you
Looking my way
You turned to look at me
I am awestruck
I'm amazed or stunned
By the smile on your face
By the happiness evident in your smile
And the sound of your voice that surrounds me
The way your voice envelops me
Convincing me that I am okay
Your presence reassures me
And you
Refers back to the person being addressed
Unravel me in ways I've never seen
You reveal new sides of me I've never seen
And you have captured me and I don't want to leave
You've captivated me and I don't want to depart
Stay
Requesting someone to remain
Stay with me
Asking for the person's continued presence
Stay I pray
Pleading for the person to stay
Don't give up on me
Urging not to give up on the speaker
Fast
Swiftly or quickly
Like the time that goes by
Comparing the speed of time
But I never noticed cause I was too busy getting lost in your eyes
Being so absorbed in the person that time goes unnoticed
I am not scared
Not afraid
Of the things that I feel
Expressing contentment despite emotions
Cause I'm glad just to know
Comforted by the knowledge of emotions
No matter where this all goes
Regardless of the future, emotions are genuine
That my feelings are real
Feelings are authentic
And you
Refers back to the person being addressed
Unravel me in ways I've never seen
You reveal new sides of me I've never seen
And you have captured me and I don't want to leave
You've captivated me and I don't want to depart
Stay
Requesting someone to remain
Stay with me
Asking for the person's continued presence
Stay I pray
Pleading for the person to stay
Don't give up on me
Urging not to give up on the speaker
And from the moment that I knew I loved you
From the instant I realized my love for you
That I knew I loved you
Reiteration of the moment of falling in love
I knew things would never be the same
Acknowledgment of an irreversible change
And I'm praying this is working
Hoping for the success of the relationship
Praying this is different
Desiring a different outcome this time
Praying that this time I'll finally see a change
Hope for positive change in the relationship
Oh
Expression of emotion or feeling
And I'm hoping this is worth it
Expectation that efforts will yield positive results
Hoping this is worth it
Anticipating the relationship's value
Cause I love you more than I could ever say
Expressing deep affection beyond words
Stay
Requesting someone to remain
Stay with me
Asking for the person's continued presence
Stay I pray
Pleading for the person to stay
Don't give up on me
Urging not to give up on the speaker
Please stay
A heartfelt plea for the person to stay
Stay
Requesting someone to remain
Stay with me
Asking for the person's continued presence
Stay I pray
Pleading for the person to stay
Don't give up on me
Urging not to give up on the speaker
