Stay (The Black Rose and the Universal Wheel) Songtext
von Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark

You say you gotta go now
Well that's OK
Run away
Like some lost child

You say I never cared much
That's no lie
Run Away
don't waste your time

You never listen
You never did
But before you walk away
There's just one thing I've got to say

Stay
Why won't you stay
Run away
Like some black rose

You say I never loved you
So you're taking sides
But when there seems no reason
It's just jealousy and pride

You never listen
You never did
But before you walk away
There's just one thing I've got to say

Stay
Why won't you stay
Run away
Like some black rose

But bfore you walk away
There's just one thing I've got to say
Stay
Why won't you stay
Run away
Like some black rose

Kisses over oceans like scarlet coloured knives
The Universal Wheel that dominates our lives
Run away
Like some black rose
