Why Stay?/A Promise - Alice Ripley

Why stay

Why stay

So steadfast and stolid and stoic and sold

For day after every day

Why stay

Why stay

Why not simply give in and get on with living

Cause everyone knows you tried

But somewhere something died on the way

Tell me why you stay

Why stay

Why stay

Enduring and coping and hurting and hoping

For day after f**king day

Why stay

Why stay

Why not simply end it

All comprehend it

And most of the world would say

He's better off that way to be free

And maybe so is she

A promise

A boy says forever

A boy says

Whatever may come well come through

And who can know how when all I know now

To be true is this promise that I make to you

A question

A boy wonders whether

A boy wonders

The two stay together

The way that they stay

For year after year

For love or foe fear

Either way

That's the promise

That I made that day

Here's what I say

To the girl who was burning so brightly

Like the light from the orion above

And still I will search for her nightly

If you see her please send her my love

And the boy was a boy for all seasons

The boy is long

The boy is long-lost to me now

So lost

The man has forgotten his reasons

But the man still remembers his vow

A promise

A man say forever

A man says I'll never regret or let you

The promise I made to stay

And I stayed true

Knowing one day wed remember that joy

You'd remember that girl

I'd remember that boy

Til we do the promise I made

I'll make it brand new

The promise that I made to you
