[Intro]
  
  

[Verse 1]

I was closing all the blinds.
                                 
Just so you could sleep the night through.

I was staying by your side.
                         
Just so I knew you were okay.

           
And I was opening the door.
                           
Just to see if you would walk through.
     
I started painting all the walls.
                        
Just to see if you like the shade.

[Chorus]

I would love just to be stuck to your side.
         
Not with anybody else, anybody else.
    
It's enough just to keep us occupied.
             
Please don’t go. No no


I would love just to be stuck to your side.
         
Not with anybody else, anybody else.
    
It's enough just to keep us occupied.
             
Please don’t go.

[Verse 2]

You were holding out your hand.
                        
Hoping I’ll be there to hold to.

I went out to Amsterdam.
                              
Just so I could give you some space.

           
Then I kept opening my door.
                           
Just to see if you would walk through.
     
I kept on painting all my walls.
                        
Just to see if you like the shade.

[Chorus]

I would love just to be stuck to your side.
         
Not with anybody else, anybody else.
    
It's enough just to keep us occupied.
        
Please don’t go. No no.


I would love just to be stuck to your side.
         
Not with anybody else, anybody else.
    
It's enough just to keep us occupied.
             
Please don’t go. Oh oh.
