From the recording Refrain
Lyrics
Still Stay
By Ted Horrell
I spent six whole years of my life trying to make you mine
It took much longer to forget you
Out of the blue you called me up, asked could you stop by
Now I know I never should have let you
Cause you’re still funny, you’re still honest, you’re still wonderfully free
You’re still beautiful and still not in love with me
Memories like landmines can stay buried for some time
And not need much to set ‘em off
But I need a mind-sweeper for the ones you left behind
Don’t need no more shrapnel in my thoughts
Cause you’re still funny, you’re still honest, you’re still wonderfully free
You’re still beautiful and still not in love with me
You’re still thoughtful, you’re still caring, you’re still cool and so at ease
You’re still magical and still not in love with me
At one time it was worth it just to know you didn’t mind
That all I wanted was to adore you
But if you’re not going to reel me in why don’t you cut the line
And go with these words that I have for you
Stay funny, stay honest, stay wonderfully free
Stay beautiful and stay away from me
Stay thoughtful, stay caring, stay cool and so at ease
Stay magical and stay away from me
