by Simone White
If you stay a while I promise I'll find a happy song to sing
It's dark but I can see in the dark and your'e smiling
no don't go yet don't be upset it's a sweet evening
and we'll go inside and light a fire
and have a laugh and have a cry
it's the little things that add up to life
ten thousand moments of paradise
lost between the big dreams and the headlines
I can't help you quit the blues
the lonely and the heartache and the bad bad news
and you've still got to pay the rent
and all those years and where they went
I don't care where you've been
how you made your enemies and lost your friends
why'd you miss those lucky breaks
and how everything is just a big mistake
you've come all this way
I know it's hard but won't you stay
all I can promise you is that tomorrow
is a brand new day
ten thousand moments of paradise
lost between the big dreams and the headlines
If you stay a while I promise I'll find a happy song to sing
It's dark but I can see in the dark and your'e smiling
no don't go yet don't be upset it's a sweet evening
and we'll go inside and light a fire
and have a laugh and have a cry
it's the little things that add up to life
