Lyric

After I’m gone, my voice will stay

Blooming with the first warmth

Harder than a midnight kiss

Was making two hearts meet again

You read my note at 3 a.m

A small bright line you couldn’t unsee

I kept it short so it would glow—

A pulse you dance to, knowing it’s me

“You’re a pure playboy,” I said;

Girls and boys have traced your steps

I wish I were the pillow near

But jealous love would sink in salt

You’re a pure playboy

Say it loud—playboy

Don’t run—stay, boy

Pure play, boy—play… playboy

In glow you wear a praying face

Like every step could mark this place

Hands up, eyes closed, sending love—

A little rite I’m dreaming of

Wild surfer—waves won’t stay;

You miss the ride yet love the spray

Wake with me one quiet dawn;

Let faint songs keep circling till they’re gone

Ride that wave—my prayer will stay

I love you still through sleepless rooms

At every break I call your name:

Stay, boy—don’t fade, don’t stray

You’re a pure playboy

Say it loud—playboy

Don’t run—stay, boy

Pure play, boy—play… playboy

Curtain’s pale breath—stay, boy

Don’t fade away—stay with me

One day—stay, boy; one day, stay
