there must be some mistake, some missing evidence
when it all comes out wrong and your cash is spent
when you've had enough, and the odds are on your side
time and circumstance pull you through the needle's eye
chorus: stay till the stars lose their place
stay till day breaks
until this heartache is gone
stay when I cannot erase
the longest day
through the kitchen walls, underneath the pavement
are secrets of the fall, in some long forgotten language
when this ship goes down, I'm gonna be the last one standing
but you can't leave me now, baby I'm so tired of bending
chorus: stay till the stars lose their place
stay till day breaks
until this heartache is gone
stay when I cannot erase
the longest day
promises break like china in my hands, like an avalanche
chorus: stay till the stars lose their place, stay till day breaks
until this heartache is gone
stay when I cannot erase, and I feel out of place
stay until daybreak comes... stay till the stars fall from space...the longest day
there must be some mistake, some missing evidence
