For a while there it was rough

But lately, I've been doin' better

Than the last four cold decembers I recall

And I see my family every month

I found a girl my parents love

She'll come and stay the night, and I think I might have it all

And I thank god every day

For the girl he sent my way

But I know the things he gives me, he can take away

And I hold you every night

And that's a feeling I wanna get used to

But there's no man as terrified as the man who stands to lose you.

Oh, I hope I don't lose you

Mm...

Please stay

I want you, I need you, oh god

Don't take

These beautiful things that I've got.

Please stay

I want you, I need you, oh god

Don't take

These beautiful things that I've got.

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, please

Please don't take.

I found my mind, I'm feelin' sane

It's been a while, but I'm finding my faith

If everything's good and it's great, why do I sit and wait 'til it's gone?

Oh, I'll tell ya, I know I've got enough

I've got peace and I've got love

But I'm up at night thinkin' I just might lose it all.

Please stay

I want you, I need you, oh god

Don't take

These beautiful things that I've got.

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, please.

Please stay

I want you, I need you, oh god

I need

These beautiful things that I've got.
