For a while it was rough
But lately I've been doing better
Than the last four cold Decembers I recall
And I see my family every month
I find 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't take away
And I hold you every night 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,
hope I don't lose you Please stay
I want you, I need you, oh God Don't take away
Please don't take
I've found my mind, I'm feeling 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 till it's gone?
Oh,
I tell you I know I've got enough
I've got peace and I've got love
But I'm up at night thinking I just might lose it all
Please stay
I want you, I need you, oh God
I need you These
beautiful things that I've got
