Hello Hive Open Mic community, it’s 
I chose Stay With Me because it perfectly captures the essence of longing for someone to return and stay close, resonating deeply with the theme of Come Back. Sam Smith’s soulful voice and raw emotion in this song feel like a heartfelt plea, wrapped in a melody that’s both tender and powerful. To me, it’s like a musical embrace, pulling you in with its vulnerability and warmth.
Sam Smith’s vocals in Stay With Me are nothing short of magical, carrying a soothing yet bittersweet quality that lingers like a familiar scent. This song stands out among their many incredible tracks, but its emotional pull makes it a perfect fit for this week’s theme. It’s a reminder of the universal desire to hold onto those we love and ask them to come back to us.
For my entry this week, I’m excited to share my cover of Stay With Me, aiming to channel its emotional depth and connect with the theme of the week. I hope you feel the same longing and warmth in my rendition. Enjoy, and I can’t wait for you to hear it.
Stay With Me / Lyrics
Guess it's true, I'm not good at a one-night stand
But I still need love 'cause I'm just a man
These nights never seem to go to plan
I don't want you to leave, will you hold my hand?
Oh, won't you stay with me?
'Cause you're all I need
This ain't love, it's clear to see
But, darling, stay with me
Why am I so emotional?
No, it's not a good look, gain some self-control
And deep down I know this never works
But you can lay with me so it doesn't hurt
Oh, won't you stay with me?
'Cause you're all I need
This ain't love, it's clear to see
But, darling, stay with me
