Where ever the Mavericks are today, we owe it to Michael Finley. He was the one guy who stayed when we were a terrible team. He stayed and fought the fight.

Why I Stayed
The way you look, how you sound, the way you move your lips.
That's why I stayed
You try and try to work it out, 'He can change'
you tell your self.
The love, the passion, How he holds me in his arms.
That's why I stayed.
I stayed for our marriage,
I stayed for our Love,
I stayed; cause I wanted too.
Hard times came and go,
But what we have is eternal.
I stayed, I stayed, I stayed cause I wanted to.
It worked, you've changed, your happier.
I love you always.
For the love, for the passion, for our marriage.
I stayed cause i wanted to.

I Should Have Stayed In Bed
Oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh
I should have stayed in bed
I didnt think itd be this way
I didnt know youd be walkinpast my house today
I should have stayed in bed,instead of fallin for you
Heaven only knows what your lovin will do
Woe is me , I should have realized
What your love could do to me now
I should have stayed beneath the
Blankets and sheets and maybe we couldnt be
I should have stayed in bed instead of fallin in love
I didnt know what this heart of mine was thinkin of
Oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh
Oh(break)
Woe is me ,i should have realized
What your love could do to me now
I should have stayed beneath the
Blankets and sheets and maybe we wouldnt be
I should have stayed in bed instead of fallin in love
I didnt know what this heart of mine was thinkin of
Oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh

Admire, I Do...You
Admire,
I do...
You.
Admitting it is not as easy.
This feeling I have is new.
Over the years it grew.
And one day out of the 'blue',
I just knew.
Admire,
I do...
You.
The way you walk,
With your head held up.
Your eyes so wise and bright.
Your words direct,
I now respect.
With my mind more open.
And more prepared to accept.
Admire,
I do...
You.
Those times we shared.
With you there caring.
And I then unaware...
Just how much you cared.
And today I reflect,
Upon my attitude.
And those awful moods you met,
You did not let upset you.
When you could...
And perhaps should have left,
Me.
Admire,
I do...
You.
And after all those things I put you through,
You stayed.
With me,
You stayed!
With me,
You stayed!

Can you leave me?
You have left with no address left;
Yet your smile has stayed with me.
You left with no one told;
Yet your gaze has stayed in me.
You have left with no clue about where;
Yet your words have stayed.
Can you leave me altogether?

When the Kings Went to War
When the kings went to war
Went to war
Went to war
When the kings went to war
I stayed home.
Now the kings have returned
Some have died
Most alive
Now the kings have returned
And I'm alone.
Who to tell
How to say
All that happened in the days
When the kings went to war
While I stayed home.
Oh the battles
Oh the hell
Not of war but worse
The well-kept secrets crying
To be known.
Knocks the door
Comes before
Nathan knows and he will tell
How the king failed to war
When he stayed home.
When the kings went to war
Went to war
Went to war
When the kings went to war
I stayed home.
Speed Of Light
The speed of light slows down
As the feather hits the ground
And if nothing else gets proved
Its always faster than it sounds
A star that shines so bright
Would be eclipsed tonight
When you kiss the satellite
Because there was always you
And you alone believed
That light could bend this way
It dont seem right
To spend tonight
As I did today
If I had known that you would call
If I could dream that you would fall
If I could change these wrongs to right
I would have stayed at home tonight
Theres nothing you can do
To make this all brand new
And nothing you can say
To make it go away
Youve never been so wrong
So how can you act strong
When a fall from grace so hard
Should never take so long
And sat goodbye as you did today
If I had known that you would call
If I could dream that you would fall
If I could change these wrongs to right
I would have stayed at home tonight
So the speed of light remains
Ever constantly the same
Again tonight as it today
If I had known that you would call
If I could dream that you would fall
If I could change these wrongs to right
I would have stayed at home tonight
If I had known that you would call
If I could dream that you would fall
If I could change these wrongs to right
I would have stayed at home tonight

Obsession
We sit in your room
So dark and strange
With yellow candles
Burning straight
Outside it rains
So silver and bright
A glaring light
Crashed into the sky
Its just the way it should be
Its so right as rain
Its just the way it should be
Its so right as rain
We stayed awake at night
With vision so unreal
We stayed awake at night
With visions so ideal
Its got a hold on me
Its got a hold on me
Smiles and voices suddenly changed
Eyes and shadows on a distance too short
Is there someone who I know ?
Is there someone at all ?
Is there someone who I know ?
Is there someone I called ?
Its just the way it should be
Its so right as rain
Its just the way it should be
Its so right as rain
We stayed awake at night
With vision so unreal
We stayed awake at night
With visions so ideal
So when the rain comes running in your eyes
And the wind shakes the forest leaves
We stayed awake at night
With visions so unreal
We stayed awake at night
With visions so ideal
Its got a hold on me

You're Here To Stay
On my mind.
And in my memories,
When that day you left from me...
You really stayed.
On my mind.
And in my memories,
When you said that you were leaving...
You really stayed.
Your voice nonstop,
Really stayed.
Feelings I've got,
Really stayed.
I've even prayed,
You away.
But...
You're here to stay.
On my mind.
And in my memories,
When you said that you were leaving...
You really stayed.
I can not block,
You away.
I can't unlock,
Your invading...
Memory.
Your voice nonstop,
Really stayed.
Feelings I've got,
Really stayed.
I've even prayed,
You away.
But...
You're here to stay.
On my mind.
And in my memories,
When that day you left from me...
You really stayed.
On my mind...
I can not block,
You away.
I can't unlock,
Your invading...
Memory.
You're here to stay!

A changeling is one child substituted for another. I couldn't find anything more apt. We had to kind of fight that supernatural element in the publicity, and I offered to try and find another title, but Clint liked it, and it stayed.

Retainning not
Retainning not you long
I stayed
Changing dramatically
I remained with
Profile tilldate.
Dismantling the position
I declared loser
I am no capable enough
To remain and stayed
As called for.

A letter to a Captain
Captain Owen
Did you find your glory?
The glory you left home for
You should have stayed
Stayed safe at home
Captain Owen
I have seen your photographs
The photographs of words
The photographs of death, of war
The same war you died in
You shouldn't have gone
You should have stayed
Stayed safe at home
Captain Owen
You deserved to live
You would've lived if you never went
And yet if you never went
We would have never known
Captain Owen
Did you get a medal?
I will give you a medal
A medal of humanity
A medal of capturing what no one saw
Deaths that everyone turned away from
But you ran to save

My father had left behind an old piano. My sister was already going to school, my mother was out working, and I stayed at home alone with my adorable grandmother who understood nothing I said. It was so boring that I stayed at the piano all day long, and that saved my life.

Dont Be A Hero
when will this world need a hero to save?
save us form our tears and our graves
to save us when were down...
there ant that many hero's around
some came and some gone
fought for the right to be wrong
some we had see in our dreams
some hid, stayed a mystery
some loved to have a crowed
some fought just to stay about
but when all the hero's seem to fail
who will save us form this hell?
when will this world need a hero thats real?
that knows our pain and knows how we feel
when the world needs a hero its to late
the ones that seems to be brave end up to be fake....
most hero's today arent so brave
but theres a hero that i proclaim! ! !

The Categorical Imperative
i could have stayed and
done what i really wanted,
but there is something that i must do
and i didn't like it,
something that we do not like
cannot just be left undone
it is bitter and not too rewarding
but it ought to be done just the same
it is not for me
it is for the rest of the world and the universe
and the galaxies
it does not end when it is finished by the shape of my hands
it leaves me empty
but i am relieved and now i am glad
& so let me begin again from the beginning
i could have stayed and
done what i really wanted,
but there is something that i must do
and now i am thinking that i must like it... it is
The imperative.

My, My How You've Changed
You never cared what others thought
You never gossiped about anyone
You never tried to fit in with the rest
You never judged anyone on their looks
Today you base life from what others think
Today gossip is a natural thing
Today you try so hard to fit in with the rest
Today everyone needs to look their best
My, my how you've changed
It would have been better if you'd stayed the same
You have lost all of your true friends
My, my how you've changed

We stayed there 24 hours a day. We lived and ate and slept that movie. We were enthusiastic, not just because of the movie, but because we had such a great collaborative team. We had a really good time. It was very much a family.
