As they were being said i wished those words were
dead they grow and grow and grow in our heads
they linger, linger and haunt us days on end

it was all in a moment of anger these daggers that i threw
they're still deeply embedded into you
i swear i fear there's nothing i can do

stay a while young is the night
give me a chance to set things right
don't you throw away those years of love
over one night when the love went wrong
stay a while young is the night
give me a chance to set things right
don't you throw away those years of love
over one night when the love went wrong
over one night when the love went wrong

i can see it in your eyes in the way you look at me
mistrust has now replaced intimacy
i feel you drifting drifting far away from me

stay a while young is the night
give me a chance to set things right
don't you throw away those years of love
over one night when the love went wrong
over one night when the love went wrong

i swear, i will fight this
i vow not to lose
i'll be damned if this destroys us
i'll be damned if i lose you

stay a while young is the night
give me a chance to set things right
don't you throw away those years of love
over one night when the love went wrong
stay a while young is the night
give me a chance to set things right
don't you throw away those years of love
over one night when the love went wrong
over one night when the love went wrong
