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