You say you wanna leave, but I think that you know

I'm the only one who's loved you, and I swore I wouldn't go

'Cuz you're the only one who gets me, you help me see the light

I only have one question, what's stopping you from leaving tonight

Is it fear of the unknown, that's keeping you right here

You've been so far away, and nothing's ever clear

You've built yourself a kingdom, yet you want to be free

What's stopping you from leaving, is it the town

Your crown, the things you've seen

Or is it me

I know you've moved around, never staying in one place

It's been that way for so long, but I'm asking you to stay

Let me take away your pain, I wanna chase away the night

I'm asking you to tell me, what's stopping you from leaving tonight

Is it fear of the unknown, that's keeping you right here

You've been so far away, and nothing's ever clear

You've built yourself a kingdom, yet you want to be free

What's stopping you from leaving, is it the town

Your crown, the things you've seen

I want you to be happy

You've seen too many closing doors

So, please tell me honestly

What are you searching for

I know you're hesitating

You're scared I'll say goodbye

But I think that you've found it

This thing we have feels right

It's not fear of the unknown, that's keeping you right here

You've been so far away, and now it seems so clear

You've built yourself a kingdom, if you ask, I'll be your queen

If I'm stopping you from leaving, and not the town

Your crown, the things you've seen

It's not fear of the unknown, that's keeping you right here

You've been so far away, and now it seems so clear

You've built yourself a kingdom, if you ask, I'll be your queen

If I'm stopping you from leaving, and not the town

Your crown, the things you've seen

Please stay for me
