Please let me stay a little while
In the sweet surrender of your open arms
Don't ever say goodbye to me
I'll be lost, wandering aimlessly, under the stars

You are my sun
Burning even in the midnight hour
And I'm in love
With the resonating power you have over me

As September slowly passed before my tired eyes
October and November somehow already passed me by
December comes, and I've run out of time
January's just another reason to cry

Please let me stay a little while
In the sweet surrender of your open arms
Don't ever say goodbye to me
I'm already lost, wandering aimlessly under the stars
February's gonna pass me by
Just like all the other times
You weren't here with me
This year, I'm not welcoming
Sweet, sweet February

As the seasons slowly change the colors of the world outside
Painting a complex picture of my forsaken life
As memories of you and I take over my fragile mind
I sit and fill an empty page with all the reasons why
Please let me stay a little while
In the sweet surrender of your open arms
Don't ever say goodbye to me
I'm already lost, wandering aimlessly under the stars
February's gonna pass me by
Just like all the other times
You weren't here with me
This year, I'm not welcoming
Sweet, sweet February

And somehow, September passed
October and November didn't seem to last
December brought me pictures of the past
January showed me that my life is unsurpassable
