Then the first part of the intro again as an end.

Complete lyrics:
If you're sad and mad
but glad to be away and free
from all the pain you've known
inside you feel you've grown
if you take your time
with every leap of faith you'll find
it's easier to grow

Come to stay or stay away
Come to stay or stay away

If you take too long
pretending that there's nothing wrong
don't waste my time 'cause i'll be fine
either way you'll see
that who we are what we'll be
in the end it's time to show
step up and let me know

Come to stay or stay away
Come to stay or stay away
i hope that you can see
nobody love you more than me
come to stay or stay away
away
away
away

while distances grows between us
every step you take away you take
a piece of me

If you say so long
pretending that there's something wrong
it's all for naught
'cause i forgot

if in time you find
the only leap of faith was mine
it is easier to go
or say we'll never know

Come to stay or stay away
Come to stay or stay away
i hope that you can see
nobody loves you more than me
Come to stay or stay away
away
away
away - yeah yeah
away - yeah yeah
away - yeah yeah
away - yeah yeah


And that's it.

Comments, suggestion, threats, warnings, invitations, all be free to give them to me.

This is a great song. It appears to me to be about a guy who wants an exclusive relationship with a girl who's afraid of commitment. It took me a while to get it, but now that I see that, it's clearer than day. By the way, this is my absolute favorite band.
