[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I hope I don`t losе you
Mm, please stay
I want you, I need you, oh God
Don`t take
Thеse beautiful things that I`ve got

[Chorus]
Please stay
I want you, I need you, oh, God
Don`t take
These beautiful things that I`ve got



[Post-Chorus]
Oh, ooh
Please don`t take

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
Please stay
I want you, I need you, oh God
Don`t take
These beautiful things that I`ve got

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, ooh

[Outro]
Please stay
I want you, I need you, oh God
I need
These beautiful things that I`ve gLot
