Stay with me,
I plead to you
As I grip your hand
Mine is slick with sweat.
My heart beats quickly
As my fears rush into my mind
"Will you leave me? Please don't go."
You just smile and say 'no.'
I know you won't leave me.
My heart wants to come out of my chest
But it's okay.
Because I know you're scared too.
You think that you're not good enough
Or that you're a bad girlfriend
I'm here to tell you that that's
Wrong, wrong, and super wrong!
You're an amazing girlfriend, dummy!
Despite your likes and kinks
I don't care about any of that.
If it makes you happy, then it's okay.
Our eyes meet
And lips part
As I whisper to you:
"I'm not leaving either."
I don't care what they might think
I don't care about their words
I know, deep inside, that these feelings are true.
And my beating heart seems to agree.

Stay with me,
I plead to you
As I grip your hand
Mine is slick with sweat.
My heart beats quickly
As my fears rush into my mind
"Will you leave me? Please don't go."
You just smile and say 'no.'
I know you won't leave me.
My heart wants to come out of my chest
But it's okay.
Because I know you're scared too.
You think that you're not good enough
Or that you're a bad girlfriend
I'm here to tell you that that's
Wrong, wrong, and super wrong!
You're an amazing girlfriend, dummy!
Despite your likes and kinks
I don't care about any of that.
If it makes you happy, then it's okay.
Our eyes meet

As I whisper to you:
"I'm not leaving either."
I don't care what they might think
I don't care about their words
I know, deep inside, that these feelings are true.
And my beating heart seems to agree.
