I’ve seen Redwoods and the Golden Gate,
The Palisades in the Empire State,
Aimed my compass south and drove on straight,
I’ve seen skies and oceans blue,
But none of it compares to you,
At a rooftop bar, singing in the car.
When I’m with you,
The whole world holds no sway.
Please tell me you want me to stay.
I’ve walked Savannah and its Spanish moss,
Waded out into the gulf, tried to get lost,
Breathed the White Mountains’ morning frost,
I searched everywhere ‘til I knew the truth:
That none of it compares to you,
At a rooftop bar, singing in the car.
When I’m with you,
The whole world holds no sway.
When I’m with you,
On a beach at night, under city lights,
When I’m with you,
The whole world holds no sway.
Please tell me you want me to stay.
You know I’d give you anything,
Even space if it’s what you need,
But you never know what a little faith can bring
I want to be with you,
At a rooftop bar, singing in the car.
When I’m with you, the whole world holds no sway.
When I’m with you,
On a beach at night, under city lights,
When I’m with you, the whole world holds no sway.
Please tell me you want me to stay.
