I Would Stay

I would stay if you have asked me to.
The city of cats, the land of hornbills.
The people are warm, the weather is cool.
The skies are vast, the seas are blue.

I would stay if you have asked me to.
The town where I called my second home.
The hospital where I built my skills.
The place where I gave my heart away.

I would stay if you have asked me to.
When I was thinking if this is right.
When I was considering the alternative.
When I was pondering on our future.

I would stay if you have asked me to.
As I stared into your eyes, searching for your soul.  
As I whispered in your ear, reaching out to your hand.
I was hoping you'd say, you wish me to stay too.
