You wonder why I don't meet your eyes when we part.
Why I shake your hand and look away.
Why I wave without looking back.
I'd like to tell you a secret.
I'd rather stay.
I'd rather play just one more game,
Sing just one more song,
Make time just a little longer
I'd rather stay.
You wonder why I linger after final farewells are said
Why I babble goodbyes
Why I edge my way toward the door.
I'd like to tell you a secret
It's one that I've kept to myself
I'd like to let you know
I'd rather stay
I'd rather play just one more game
Sing just one more song
Make time stretch a little longer
I'd rather stay.
