Deana Carter - What Makes You Stay Lyrics

Look at me, I'm in a place
I never thought I'd be
Don't have the strength to fight anymore
Or a reason not to leave
So tell me why I still keep holding on
To something I just cannot see

What makes you stay
When your world falls apart?
What makes you try one more time
When it's not in your heart?

At the end of your rope
When you can't find any hope
You still look at him and say
‽I just can't walk away”
Tell me, what makes you stay?

I'm not afraid of living alone
I was alone before he came
I've been in love many times before
But this time's not the same
I've always been the first to say goodbye
Now it's the last thing I can do

What makes you stay
When your world falls apart?
What makes you try one more time
When it's not in your heart?

At the end of your rope
When you can't find any hope
You still look at him and say
‽I just can't walk away”
Tell me, what makes you stay?

When it goes this deep
Feels this strong
I can't convince myself
That this love is wrong

At the end of your rope
When you can't find any hope
You still look at him and say
I just can't walk away
Tell me, what makes you stay?
Tell me, what makes you stay?
