"I Hope You Stay" lyrics

You've been through hell and back
You've given all you have
And you're sure you've reached the end
'Cause hope comes but it never lasts
You've cried every tear you can
Heaven knows everywhere you've been
You're standing out on the edge
Hesitating but you're giving in
If nobody said this
Then I'll be the one to say

I hope you stay
I hope you see the way
You light up every room that you walk into
If only you saw you the way I do
Then I think you'd stay
And you'd see the way you're loved and how much you matter
If only you knew it was gonna get better
Day by day
I hope you stay

You've fought behind closed doors
You can't do this anymore
And you think that you're alone
But I promise you're not alone
If nobody said this
Then I'll be one to say

I hope you stay
I hope you see the way
You light up every room that you walk into
If only you saw you the way I do
Then I think you'd stay
And you'd see the way you're loved and how much you matter
If only you knew it was gonna get better
Day by day
I hope you stay
(I hope you stay)

Pain says you won't get through
Shame says that it's just you
But I've been there
Yeah, it's me too

So, I hope you stay
I hope you see the way
You light up every room that you walk into
If only you saw you the way I do
Then I think you'd stay
And you'd see the way you're loved and how much you matter
If only you knew it was gonna get better
Day by day
Day by day
I hope you stay
