stay

• (bkz: shakespeares sisters)
• shakespeares sisters'ın şarkısı olup 90'lı yılların başlarında mtv sayesinde hayatımıza giren stay'in sözlerini derhal yazmak, bu gotik klibi severek anmak isterim.
  
  videoda, hatırlayalım, uyuyan bir adam, eski bananarama üyesi kısa saçlı ince sesli soprano ve karizmatik kalın sesli catwoman beraber rol alıyorlar, uyuyan adam genel olarak uyuyor, kısa saçlı soprano (esas kız) ona sarılıp uyandırmaya çalışıyor, gölgeler arasından çıkan, siyah latex kostümünden ve alaycı gülümsemesinden şıp diye anladığımız kedi kadın bunları ayırmaya çalışıyordu. genel olarak gönlüm sevenlerden yana da olsa kötü kadın olması tasarlanmış shakespeare kardeşinin gerek sesi gerekse duruşuyla diğerine en az on bastığı inkar edilemez bir gerçektir.
  
  zaten nihayetinde bütün klip boyunca habersizce horul horul uyuyan üstü çıplak herif (sallamıyorum umarım) uyanıp soprano sevgilisine sarılıyor, kedi kadın da başka kurbanlar aramak üzere dönüp gidiyordu, ya da bu tamamen benim wishful thinking etkisiyle uyduran hafızam.
  
  if this world is wearing thin
  and you're thinking of escape
  i'll go anywhere with you
  just wrap me up in chains
  but if you try to go alone
  don't think i'll understand
  
  stay with me, stay with me
  
  in the silence of your room
  in the darkness of your dreams
  you must only think of me
  there can be no in between^*
  when your pride is on the floor
  i'll make you beg for more
  
  stay with me, stay with me.
  
  enter catwoman:
  
  you'd better hope^* and pray
  that you make it safe
  back to your own world
  you'd better hope^* and pray^*
  that you wake one day
  in your own world
  cause when you sleep at night they don't hear your cries
  in your own world
  only time^* will tell if you can break the spell
  back in your own world
  
  (haiiiiiiiii^*)
  
  stay with me, stay with me.
• lisa loeb versiyonunun sözleri şu şekildedir:
  
  you say i only hear what i want to.
  you say i talk so all the time so.
  and i thought what i felt was simple,
  and i thought that i don't belong,
  and now that i am leaving,
  now i know that i did something wrong 'cause i mised you.
  yeah yeah, i missed you.
  and you say i only hear what i want to:
  i don't listen hard,
  don't pay attention to the distance that you're running
  to anyone, anywhere,
  i don't understand if you really care,
  i'm only hearing negative: no, no, no.
  so i turned the radio on, i turned the radio up,
  and this woman was singing my song:
  lover's in love, and the other's run away,
  lover is crying 'cause the other won't stay.
  some of us hover when we weep for the other who was
  dying since the day they were born.
  well, well, this is not that;
  i think that i'm throwing, but i'm thrown.
  and i thought i'd live forever, but now i'm not so sure.
  you try to tell me that i'm clever,
  but that won't take me anyhow, or anywhere with you.
  you said that i was naive,
  and i thought that i was strong.
  i thought, 'hey, i can leave, i can leave.'
  oh, but now i know that i was wrong, 'cause i missed you.
  yeah, i miss you.
  you said, 'i caught you 'cause i want you and one day i'll let you go.
  'you try to give away a keeper, or keep me 'cause you know you're just scared to lose.
  and you say, 'stay.'
  and you say i only hear what i want to.
• sash'ın mistik bir havayla başlayan ve techno ritmlerle çok iyi sentezlenmiş benim için özel bir anısı da bulunan bir şarkısı... hatta sözleri şöyledir:
  
  i had a dream last night
  you were there
  you held my hand so tight
  i thought i'd just die
  do you remember?
  when we use to have
  so much fun
  i used to cry sometimes
  those days are gone
  did you remember?
  
  (do you re...?)
  i wanna go back to
  back to the days
  when i needed
  a little more fun
  when i believed i
  i believed i
  could fly so high
  through the clouds
  
  tear down these walls
  if just for one day
  tear down these walls
  i need you to stay
  stay.
  
  turning back time to
  times we made love
  all day,
  under the sun
  when i believed i
  i believed i
  could fly so high
  through the clouds
  
  tear down these walls
  if just for one day
  tear down these walls
  i need you to stay
  stay.

• pierre cosso ve bonnie bianco şarkısı aynı zamanda. sözleri şöyle:
  you are my life.
  you are my only one desire
  you're the air that i breathe tonight...
  won't you stay here beside me? stay
  
  when i see you there's a glow from the stars above.
  guess they know that i'm so in love...
  yes, i'll stay here beside you, stay...
  
  day after day feeling low in the evening sun, till you came and you were the one. now i'll stay here beside you, stay...
  
  well remembered dreams of a foolish parade.
  didn't need to persuade
  you... hungry for a smile...
  in the morning moonlight that'll be alright with you- take my hand.
  
  all i can do is to dream of you all day through.
  close my eyes- all i see is you.
  yes, i'll stay here beside you stay.
  
  stay by my side
  you're the air that i breathe tonight...
  all i want is to hold you tight
  yes, i'll stay here beside you, stay forever...
  here we'll stay tonight, here we'll stay...

  sozler:
  
  we were walking
  just the other day
  it was so hot outside
  you could fry an egg
  remember you were talking
  i watched as sweat ran down your face
  reached up and i caught it at your chin
  licked my fingertip
  we were we were
  wasting time
  
  let the hours roll by
  doing nothing for the fun
  little taste of the good life
  whether right or wrong
  makes us want to stay, stay, stay, for awhile
  then later on the sun began to fade
  then the clouds rolled over our heads
  and it began to rain
  oh we were dancing mouths open
  we were splashing and the tongue taste
  for a moment this good time would never end
  you and me
  you and me
  just wasting time
  i was kissing you
  you were kissing me love
  from good day into the moonlight
  now a night so fine
  makes us wanna stay, stay, stay, stay for a while
  wasting time
  
  i shall miss these things
  when it all rolls by
  what a day
  wanna stay, stay, stay, stay, stay for a while
  hey love
  oh just groping you
  rolling in the mud
  stay a whilecome on love
  wanna stay, stay, stay, stay for awhile
