If He Stays Lyrics - Singles - Vanessa Kafka

There he goes again 

My angel waking up from a fall 

It's a wonder he's alive to be seen at all 

Cause when he's down, he's low, so low 

And I am out, reaching out 

It seems that every time I'm in, he's out 

And every time I'm gone, he's there 

Wake me up when this is over 

Wake me up if he stays 

Here I go again 

Ignoring all the warning signs 

The same old road 

I lost myself along the last time 

But when I'm free, I run, I run 

And he is out, reaching out 

It seems that every time I'm dying 

He's alive and well 

How come every time I'm crying 

He is free of guilt 

Wake me up when this is over 

Set me up for when he goes 

Cause I can't live like this forever 

But I can't bear to see him go
