Lyrics

Can She Stay
(Peloso, Sy)
In my mind I know it’s time
To let her spread her wings
She has to let her voice fly
And I have to let her sing
She has a smile on her face
As long as a summer’s day
She can’t wait to start her new life
And I have to step away
But it’s hard to do, feeling like a fool
This heart of mine still aches
As she holds my hand, whispers in my ear
The memory remains

From the first day of the rest of her life
She’s never left my side
She’s given me so much pride
I’m just along for the ride
A little voice inside my head
Saying let her on her way
But my heart is asking
If there’s a chance
Can she stay?

Tell me where the time has gone
I wish to God I knew
It’s like an old forgotten song
In my heart she sings it to
I wish I could make her stay the same
A child in every single way
And as she grows into a lady
I got to let her go some day
But it’s hard to do, went by all too soon
Moments drift away
As I close my eyes, think of all those years
The memories remain

From the first day of the rest of her life
She’s never left my side
She’s given me so much pride
I’m just along for the ride
A little voice inside my head
Saying let her on her way
But my hearts the one that’s asking
If there’s a chance
Can she stay?

In my mind I know it’s time
The hourglass stood still
And as I walked her down the aisle
I’m holding back the tears
She’s got this smile on her face
Lift her veil, gave her a kiss
As she turned to start her new life
I say it’s time to go your way
On this first of the rest of your life
I’ll never leave your side
You’ve given me so much pride
I’m just along for the ride
A little voice inside my head
Saying let you go your way
But my hearts the one that’s asking
If there’s a chance
Can you stay?
