For a while there it was rough
But lately I've been doin' better
Than the last four cold Decembers I recall
I call my parents every month
Had a girl my family love
Despite the sleepless nights 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 he can take away
And I hold you every night
That's a feeling I wanna get used to
There's no man who's terrified
As the man who stands to lose you
Oh, I hope I don't lose you

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, don't take
These beautiful things that I've got

These beautiful things that I've got

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?
I'll tell you I know I've got enough
I've got peace and I've got love
But I'm up at night and I'm thinkin' I might lose it all

Please stay
I want you, I need you, oh God
Don't, don't take
These beautiful things that I've got

These beautiful things that I've got

Stay
I want you, I need you, oh God
Don't take
These beautiful things that I've got
