Hang Around and Stay Awhile

from Modern Mistakes by Glenn Robinson

about

I felt that that the album was going back and forth between pop songs and heavier songs. I wanted something that bridged the gap a bit, like "The Worst". I dug into my endless stash of unfinished ideas and came up with this riff I first recorded in 2007. Coincidentally, the demo had the riff of this song, and the bridge of 'Desperate With Standards" as the chorus. Pretty crazy how it all ended up on one album, years later.

lyrics

How many nights can I stay awake?
How much caffeine can my body take?
I can't tolerate these cold winter nights
Come freeze with me under these city lights

Nobody gets it quite like she does
Nobody puts up with me just because
I look back and I start to cringe
Because of all the things that I have missed

Hang around
Cause I'm no good without you
Stay Awhile
Keep everything in place
It's been some time since I've been feeling something
Everything in me says it's all right

She is the best thing my eyes have seen
Better than anything that I could dream
Once you know what's good you won't let it go
No matter what because it's all you'll know

Oh I know where I have been
And it's weird how everything falls into place
And of of the terrible chain of events will take us
To where we least expect it to
...everything falls into place
