How do you stay when the love's gone?
How do you endure another love song?
How do you care when you're alone?
-When your deepest desires are never known.
How do you smile when unsupported?
The joy is dim, no longer courted.
How do you pretend that all is well,
When staying together only feels like hell?
How do you act like all is grand?
-When no one is there to hold your hand.
How do you stay when the love's gone?
It's time for you to move on.
