Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I saw you when I swore I wouldn't look
But the way you stood, the way you breathed
Made every warning feel like nothing
You were calm… and I was coming undone

I told myself to stay away
That this would end this way
But you smiled once—and everything changed
Suddenly, I didn’t care what it meant

[Chorus]
You had a “stop” screaming on your lips
And I knew it was meant for me
But I saw your smile—and that didn’t stop me
It pulled me closer than I meant to be
Your silence said “go,” but your eyes said “stay”
And my heart never knew how to obey
I was already falling…
And that didn’t stop me
So I’ll just stay

[Verse 2]
You didn’t ask, you never chased
But somehow you were always there
The way you looked at me like I mattered
Like I wasn’t afraid when you were near

I hid my feelings, bit my tongue
Tried to act like you were just someone
But one soft glance, one quiet laugh
And every “no” turned to a guarantee

[Chorus – repeat]
You had a “stop” screaming
on your lips
And I knew it was meant for me
But I saw your smile—and that didn’t stop me
It pulled me closer than I meant to be
Your silence said “go,” but your eyes said “stay”
And my heart never knew how to obey
I was already falling…
And that didn’t stop me
So I’ll just stay

[Bridge]
I was scared of what I felt
Of what I wasn’t supposed to want
But how do you run from something
That feels more real than anything you’ve ever felt ?

So I stayed
Even when I shouldn’t
I stayed
Because you were worth breaking for

[Final Chorus]
You had a “stop” screaming on your lips
And I knew it was meant for me
But I saw your smile—and that didn’t stop me
It broke every rule I tried to keep
Your silence said “go,” but your eyes said “stay”
And I’ve never known how to walk away
I was already yours…
And that didn’t stop me
So I’ll just stay
