I want to know what "linger on" in this song means, i have already looked up the meaning of "linger" but i still can't figure it out. Here is an excerpt of the song:

Sometimes I feel so happy,
Sometimes I feel so sad.
Sometimes I feel so happy,
But mostly you just make me mad.
Baby, you just make me mad.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.

It means what it always means. 😛
It lingers on. 😱

Thanks, i couldn't figure out if he meant that or if he was telling her to persist, like she was dying or something.
