Adam Watts
I would travel the world
And bring you back diamonds
Stories of pain, of hope and of triumph
Cheat death to show you what I’m made of
I would do all of this just to prove my love
If life was a game I’d win for you
In a world of lies, I’d be your truth
I would wait forever, I would suffer too
I would do all of this and even more for you
(chorus)
But you say:
“Sit down look me in the eyes…
(ch 1) Don’t write my name in the sky…
(ch 2) I don’t want my name up in the sky…
The only thing that you have to do…
Is stay with me and I’ll stand by you
Stand by me and I’ll stay with you
You’re making it sound too easy
Love is a fight not a treaty
If I let down the guard will I feel the same?
Shouldn’t this be harder, no pain no gain?
Chorus
(bridge)
Maybe you’re right
And the day is just as long as the night
So promises made
Are the chains of love no one can break
(bridge B)
Bad weather will come
Wicked rain will beat on our hearts like a drum
But faith is our cover
Let no one destroy what our Lord put together
And you say:
“Sit down/back look me in the eyes…
(ch 1) Don’t write my name in the sky…
(ch 2) I don’t want my name up in the sky…
The only thing that you have to do…
Is stay with me and I’ll stay with you
Stay with me and I’ll stay with you
(chorus 4)
And I say:
Sit back look me in the eyes…
(ch 1) Don’t write my name in the sky…
The only thing that you have to do…
Is stay with me and I’ll stand by you
Stand by me and I’ll stay with you
