[Verse 1]
No matter how good you've been to me
I don't have the words to make you understand
Without a roof, oh, those years were lean
Under the moon, we found a place to dance

[Pre-Chorus]
I have tried to be something more
Than a moth to a fickle flame
But you know when the crowd goes home
You're the only one that knows my name

[Chorus]
Don't you stray
Don't you stray
Don't you stray
Don't you stray

[Verse 2]
So many people are suffering
From either loneliness or success
The closer we get to tragedy
The more I feel like I am truly blessed

[Pre-Chorus]
I have tried (I have tried) to be something more
Than a train married to the track
But you know (But you know) when the sun comes up
I am bound to be rolling back

[Chorus]
Don't you stray
Don't you stray
Don't you stray
Don't you stray

[Bridge]
Busy, busy, I'm working all the time, love
Do ya miss me like I miss you much?
Busy, busy, what's on your mind, love?
Nobody else gets me, I need your touch

[Chorus]
Don't you stray
Don't you stray
Don't you stray
Don't you stray
