Stay in Love by Tom Cross Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Looks like it's gonna be a beautiful week
May I take you out on friday at 12.15?
See there's a park down the street that's especially green
We can kick back, relax and more importantly speak
Okay, a friend of mine said something that has settled on my mind
And in this case the topic is time
You and I are fair young but been steady four years
He told me that I'm losing out on my career
Like 18 to 29 is the prime
For getting girls and drinking til we lose our minds
He asked me how I could watch my life fly by
Like to him it's the equivalent of suicide, I
Went to tell him that thats not livin
But then I thought back upon all those women
Now don't get me wrong yes my love's for you
Which is why I'm sitting here and expressing the truth
When you're taken people try to lure you into temptation
For a girl like you that's a daily basis
I like that we've both got invitations
But replied with a no and decided to stay home
But yo, one thing I learned last go round
If they're down when you're not they won't stick around
And the options that I'm coppin might seem persistent
But I like what I've got baby that's commitment
So...
(Chorus)
*Stay in Love* Why can't we just?
*Stay in Love* Is it so hard?
*Stay in Love* You and me baby
You and me baby
*Stay in Love* Why can't we just?
*Stay in Love* Is it that hard?
*Stay in Love* You and me baby
You and me baby
(Verse 2)
I'm a child from a broken home
They say that I'll repeat the cycle and end up all alone
But I hope you know it's not so black and white
See you could blame it on bad luck and full moon light
Because that's about as loose as the answers stand
And the science is symbolic like an ampersand
We all know that every couple in the world has problems
Yet some deal with it and others just dodge them
Now I don't claim to be a genius, geneticist, psychologist, religious extremist
I just know I've seen this, a bad dream kid
With a hatchet to bury, and mad scheme in my back pocket
When I drop it maybe you can understand
That this was never easy and it was never planned
But I'm always in demand and I hope to be the man
That brings the light to the life of my very own fam
So...
(Chorus)
