There were nights I couldn't see tomorrow, Couldn't find a reason to get through. I kept all the hurt behind a smile, So nobody knew. Then you found me in the middle of it, When I didn't know what to say. You didn't fix everything, You just didn't walk away. [Pre-Chorus] And maybe you didn't know it, But your voice helped me breathe. When I couldn't see a future, You reminded me to believe. [Chorus] So I'll stay a little longer, I'll make it through tonight. Even when the world feels heavy, I'll keep looking for the light. You held my hand through the darkness, But I'm learning to hold mine too. I thought I had nothing left, Then I found a reason to make it through. I'll stay a little longer, And see what tomorrow brings. [Verse 2] I still have days when it gets hard, When old feelings come back around. But now I know I don't have to Keep them buried underground. There are people who would listen, There are people who would stay. And maybe getting better Doesn't happen all in one day. [Bridge] If I could talk to the girl I was, I'd tell her, “Please don't give up. You haven't met all the people Who are going to love you yet.” And I'd tell her that the darkest night Doesn't decide the morning sky. There is still so much ahead of you— So stay and let yourself find it. [Final Chorus] I'll stay a little longer, I'll make it through tonight. Even when the world feels heavy, I'll keep looking for the light. You were there when I was hurting, And I'll always remember you. But I'm finding reasons of my own To keep making it through. I'll stay a little longer, I'll stay and see what tomorrow brings.
