I Should Have Stayed in My Room

from Paint a Little Tree (album) by The Portingales

about

Life would be better sometimes if we knew how to just stay in our room and be at peace

lyrics

I am a sucker for a pretty face
The glass is the nature, the sunlight the grace
That drops like snowflakes on a thirsty heart
Build me up slowly then tear me apart

I should have stayed in my room
Repose in the sunbeams of a warm afternoon
Wait here for mother, she'll be home soon
Oh I should have stayed in my room

I fell so hard I could scarcely breathe
And no one believed me when I said it was sweet
The world has a way of just tearing you up
I've bled out so much yet I can't get enough

But there is no where to go
Where I could let myself show

I should have stayed in my room
Repose in the sunbeams of a warm afternoon
Wait here for mother, she'll be home soon
Oh I should have stayed in my room
Wait here for mother, she'll be home soon
Oh I should have stayed in my room
I should have stayed in my room
I should have stayed in my room
