[Verse 1]
Take me to the lake side
Place me among the trees that hide
From the dust and from the old
By the river and by the oak
Will there be a bowl of soap
Like the songs we were told
Will there be a boat
That will take me to the other side
[Pre-Chorus]
Because I'm on my way to somewhere
I'm on my way to something
But I'll meet you when you get there
[Chorus]
I wish could stay my friend
I wish could stay my friend
I wish could stay my friend
I wish could stay my friend
I wish could stay
[Verse 2]
Sunday call and after all
A prayer would only make me blush
But thanks for letting us
Who do I ask for another day
A prayer would only make me blush
But thanks for letting us
Who do I thank for another day
[Pre-Chorus]
Because I'm on my way to somewhere
I'm on my way to something
But I'll meet you when you get there
[Chorus]
I wish could stay my friend
I wish could stay my friend
I wish could stay my friend
I wish could stay my friend
I wish could stay
I wish could stay
[Outro]
(Stay)
(I wish could stay my friend)
(Stay)
