If U Stayed

If U Stayed - ZZ Ward

Written by：Zsuzsanna Ward

Boy I just heard you're getting married

And it took all the air straight out my lungs

Sh*t just got real it kinda scares me

'Cause I'm finding out letting go ain't that much fun

When you're walking down aisle

And when you're holding on

Onto your brand new child

I hope you think of me

Of everything we had

And everything we couldn't be

When the day is dark

You know that I can't help but

Wonder where you are

And wonder if things would be better

If we'd stayed together

If you stayed

Boy I just can't carry this burden

And they say that the truth will set you free

But even the words can't stop this hurtin'

So I guess it's true sometimes lies are what you need

When you're walking down the aisle

And when you're holding on

Onto your brand new child

I hope you think of me

Of everything we had

And everything we couldn't be

When the day is dark

You know that I can't help but

Wonder where you are

And wonder if things would be better

If we'd stayed together

And if you stayed

Would we have the life I'd always dreamed about

Picket fences cyprus trees outside the house

Candlelights and the nights and falling rain

Years go by but still it'd always feel the same

Or would it be the way it used to long ago

The ups and downs the epic highs the tragic lows

The endless tears that I would cry all summer long

It's strange to see the things you start to miss

When they're all gone

When you're walking down the aisle

And when you're holding on

Onto your brand new child

I hope you think of me

And everything we had

And everything we couldn't be

When the day is dark

You know that I can't help but

Wonder where you are

And wonder if things would be better

If we'd stayed together

If you stayed
