For a while there 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 found a girl my parents love
She’ll come and stay the night
I think I might have it all

And I thank god everyday 
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
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
Mmm
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
Please don’t take

I 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’ll tell ya I know I’ve got enough
I got peace,
And I 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
Don’t take
These beautiful things that I’ve got
Please stay
I want you I need you oh god
I need
These beautiful things that I’ve got
