Lyrics
Think I'm Gonna Stick Around
Gonna stay a little longer
Than I planned
Jump back in the water
And kick up the sand
Somehow the thought of leaving
Has left me behind
Think I'm gonna stick around
Hope you don't mind
Gonna wake again and find out
Here I am
Rise and shine and hang out
Right here where I stand
The notion of more motion
No more can I find
Think I'm gonna stick around
Hope you don't mind
Think I'm gonna stick around
No more thoughts of travel
Plant my feet, back in the ground
Let all flight plans unravel
See, I couldn't leave without you
Never would
Any place without you
Just isn't good
The thought of being elsewhere
Is cruel and unkind
Think I better stay in town
Hope you don't mind
Music
Even if I wasn't asked to
What the heck
I'd have to be beside you
You knew I'd be back
Somehow the thought of leaving
Is now out of line
Think I'll put my luggage down
Hope you don't mind
Gonna spend a little more time
Every day
Celebrate the sublime
And not go away
The more I like to linger
The longer I'll stay
Think I'm gonna stick around
Hope it's okay.
