I would rather stay here
where the flowers bloom and the sun, it shines
it shines on you
It lights up your eyes
Sitting here all by ourselves, counting all the people
As they pass us by
They gather all around, stare on down
Into a dark, dark, pit
Don't go, please don't go
But they step on in, they fall all in
They walk all over you
One step at a time they walk in a line down a false, false, hope
I would rather stay here
where the flowers bloom and the sun, it shines
it shines on you
it lights up your eyes
I would rather stay here
where the moon, it glows
soaring doves and falling crows
laughter is the only sound here
If i had one wish, I'd fill up that pit, I'd fill up that pit
I'd cry till it filled to the brim
You'd swim to the top, and I'd grab your hand
Oh how can I, how can I convince you to stay
where all the flowers bloom and the grass it sways
And the rain, it pours, and the waves all roar
and the trees they grow, and the falling crow
soars down into that dark cold pit
and you follow it in, oh you follow it in
I would rather stay here
where the flowers bloom and the sun, it shines
it shines on you
it lights up your eyes
I would rather stay here
where the moon, it glows
soaring doves and falling crows
laughter is the only sound here
If i had one wish, I'd fill up that pit, I'd fill up that pit
I'd cry till it filled to the brim
You'd swim to the top, and I'd grab your hand
