Believe me,
I don't wanna go
And it'll grieve me
'Cause I love you so
We both know
Wish I could
Say the right words
Wish I could trust
to lead you
That it was just this once
Through this land
But I must do what I must...
Wish I could play the father
I can't adjust to this discust.
And take you by the hand
We're done and I just wish I could stay

Both: Wish I could stay
Wish I could stay here
Wish I could stay here
Wish I could stay
