It Stays

John Wesley Harding

Bury it in the garden
At midnight by the moon
Cover up the traces
Lick and dress your wounds
Burn it up or drown it, you can try
What has never lived, can never die
And it doesn't go away
It stays, it stays, it stays, it stays


I saw you standing in the kitchen
Drinking champagne from a mug
Should I have waited 'til you noticed me?
Was I ash upon the rug?
Sometimes you can not remove a stain
And if you do, its absence still remains
And it doesn't go away
It stays, it stays, it stays, it stays
It fights another day
It doesn't go away
It stays, it stays, it stays, it stays


It's as simple as that
I can't add to it
We had our chance
And we blew it
Worse than that
Well, we knew it, we knew it


Every day's the morning after -
Maybe last night broke the curse
But it was only in remission
It'll come back even worse
In your dreams, it's falling far behind
But just like daylight coming through the blinds
It doesn't go away
It stays, it stays, it stays, it stays
It fights another day
It doesn't go away
It stays, it stays, it stays, it stays
It fights another day
Do not go away
Stay, stay, stay, stay
Do not go away
Stay
