Night Like This - Reason to Stay Lyrics

There was a time in my life where I thought about the easy way out
A time where I couldn't see past the doubt
The heartache, the pain, the despair, always felt like they were near
I was inside my head, where I lived comfortably in fear

But then everything changed
You showed me I wasn't so alone

When I look at what I have now, I wouldn't trade away my days for a
Quiet place, no I wouldn't give this all away, I wish I could
Go back then, tell myself that things would work out in the end
If I only knew If I left that day, I wouldn't have found you

Maybe saying "everything happens for a reason" isn't so cliche
Maybe all you need is something good to come your way
To let you forget all about those shitty feelings
To give you one more reason to stay

I've gotten past the chaos
Leaving my worries behind

When I look at what I have now, I wouldn't trade away my days for a
Quiet place, no I wouldn't give this all away, I wish I could
Go back then, tell myself that things would work out in the end
If I only knew If I left that day

Since you've been in my life the pain has dissipated
I'm no longer weighted down by all that hatred
With you I feel seen, heard, and appreciated
I'm so thankful for you, these dark thoughts have faded

When I look at what I have now, I wouldn't trade away my days for a
Quiet place, no I wouldn't give this all away, I wish I could
Go back then, tell myself that things would work out in the end
If I only knew If I left that day, I wouldn't have found you
