Company Lyrics - Singles - Megan Slankard

As I sat the moon started rising 

I'm swinging on the rocking chair 

It's kinda dark on the horizon 

But that's only 'cause the sun ain't there 

As I sat the moon started rising 

And I remembered like it were yesterday 

It was kinda dark beyond the horizon 

He had come to take me away 

I don't know, I don't know of course 

I don't know I don't know why life is so short 

As I stood the moon started rounding 

She saw him dismounting his horse 

In the dark he led himself by starlight 

To the porch and from the far lights of the storm 

And as she stood the moon started rounding 

Her heart started pounding like a fist on the door 

From the dark she heard her name that he was saying 

And that's what she was waiting for 

I don't know, I don't know if it's tame enough there 

I don't know, if I go, will I miss it out here 

She would go but doubt slowly killed it 

Where her love just could not fill it up again 

And he just knew he didn't have to ask her 

He did not run it past her if this were the end 

So she walked here hair flowing behind her 

As a gentle reminder that she was only a child 

And it was dark but he gently kissed her 

He knows he won't forget her with a hint of a smile 

And as she cried he cast back a shadow behind him 

And it did remind him that there were stars up there too 

And it was dark but he gently kissed her 

I'm so sorry I could not accompany you 

I don't know, I don't know why it just wouldn't be 

I don't know I don't know why I couldn't be company 

I don't know I don't know 

I don't know I don't know 

But why couldn't you just stay here with me?
