I cannot promise I will hold you up, I can't promise my arms won't give out; but I will stay. I cannot promise to squeeze you tight, I can't promise I'll pull you away; but I will stay. I cannot promise I will pick you up when you fall, I can't promise to pick up the mess, day by day; but I will stay. I promise, my heart will always be your safe haven. You may rest in there for all of your days. My dear, I promise, I will stay.

I Will Stay
I cannot promise I will hold you up, I can't promise my arms won't give out; but I will stay. I cannot promise to squeeze you tight, I can't promise I'll pull you away; but I will stay. I cannot promise I will pick you up when you fall, I can't promise to pick up the mess, day by day; but I will stay. I promise, my heart will always be your safe haven. You may rest in there for all of your days. My dear, I promise, I will stay.
