Lyrics
Learning How To Stay
Cherishing each day, I’m learning how to stay,
Right here in the simple things that never fade.
When the world gets loud, you pull me close somehow,
And I remember love was made this way.
Holding your hand, like it’s where I belong,
Warm in your eyes, I can finally breathe strong.
You’ve got that feel-it-all heart, still you stand tall,
Yeah, with you beside me I can take it all.
Through the trials and the hoping,
When the road gets hard and broken,
We don’t let go, we understand,
We lean in more, hand in hand.
You’re my partner and my lover,
Sharing secrets under cover,
My best friend when the world pretends.
Sweet whispers in the morning,
Like a promise without warning,
You fill me up, again and again.
My darkest day, my sweetest night,
You make it all feel right.
I’ve had days that tried to shake me, bend me out of shape,
But you don’t flinch, you just hold me in your faith.
Every scar I hide, you love me through the pride,
And you turn my fear into a softer place.
I’m an empath, I feel deep, yeah, it’s true,
But your love is the calm that I come back to.
When you doubt your light, I’ll stay through the fight,
And remind you you were born to shine.
Through the storms and through the waiting,
We keep choosing what we’re making,
No running when it gets too real,
We hold the truth of what we feel.
You’re my partner and my lover,
Sharing secrets under cover,
My best friend when the world pretends.
Sweet whispers in the morning,
Like a promise without warning,
You fill me up, again and again.
My darkest day, my sweetest night,
You make it all feel right.
You inspire me to generate,
To build a life, to celebrate.
To live your world, to grow our home,
Never leave you feeling alone.
If it’s you and me, then I believe,
There’s nothing we can’t be.
You’re my partner and my lover,
Sharing secrets under cover,
My best friend ‘til the story ends.
Sweet whispers in the morning,
Love keeps on restoring,
You fill me up, again and again.
My darkest day, my sweetest night,
Yeah, you make it all feel right
You make it all feel right.
