Maybe I'm being selfish, but all I can think of is "stay"
Maybe I'm being selfish, but all I can think of is "stay"


Before I was empty
Before you were gone
Before things exploded
Before things went wrong


Before life had meaning
Before we were friends
Before when I met you
Before you had to grow up


Before when I met you
Before childhood ended
Before you knew too much
Before you had worries
Before you were born
Before you were born

Lyrics

Before all the sadness
Before all the pain
We could have been [something]
We might have held hands in the rain

Before all this happened
Before it was done
We still had forever
We still could have played in the sun

Chorus:
Take me back...
Take me back...
...is all I can say
since the cold wind has blown you away.

Before all the darkness
came for your soul
Before everything just
spiraled all out of control

Before you were broken
Before things went wrong
You could have been happy
There seemed like a way to get home.

(Chorus)

bridge
If I lived a thousand years ago, at least you'd be getting closer
Now every passing second just takes you further away
If I could say one word to you, out of the millions I've been saving
Maybe I'm being selfish, but all I can think of is "stay"

Before I was empty
Before you were gone
Before things exploded
Before things went wrong

Before life had meaning
Before we were friends
Before when I met you
Before you had to grow up

Before childhood ended
Before you knew too much
Before you had worries
Before you were born
