You made it back to shore a hundred times You can still feel the sand on your feet And though you think you can fight the tides How long have you been out to sea? And now you're on your own Sinking fast through the deep like a stone And it's my turn to dive in and save I can save you, I can save you Don't let there be a first time you pull away Cause I'm here to stay Don't let there be a first time you pull away Cause I'm here to stay I know you can hear my voice As you quietly hide your pain You can't keep me from making this choice There's nothing that will scare me away And now you're on your own Sinking fast through the deep like a stone And it's my turn to dive in and save I can save you, I can save you Don't let there be a first time you pull away Cause I'm here to stay Don't let there be a first time you pull away Cause I'm here to stay I'm here to stay As you cry to yourself, as if no one can hear And you laugh twice as loud, to cover your fear But you don't, you don't Don't let there be a first time you pull away Cause I'm here to stay Don't let there be a first time you pull away Cause I'm here to stay Don't let there be a first Cause I'm here to say, I'm here to stay I'm here to stay
