Little While Longer

When we met, was on whole different path
Love and a conscience, are the things I never had
Leading by example, since you'll never meet my dad
Show you what he showed mom's, that's something that'll last
When I'm less than understanding, you stand by me
One foot in front of the other, how we plant our seeds
Hope our boys find better than how I lead
And show our girls to never meet a man like me
So busy worried how I hold onto
Always neglecting the fact that you hold on too
You exactly who I call on, it's all on cue
My experience in the past shouldn't fall on you
Crying yourself to bed, thinking I'm leaving
I roll you over on your side to make sure you're still breathing
Kisses to your cheek, say I love you while you sleep
Never a point without the other, some day we'll find our peace

I love it when you're calling me that
I promise you I'm coming right back
I'll never just walk away from you, walk away from you
I'm sorry if I'm not too attached
I promise you I'm coming right back
I'll never just walk away from you, walk away from you

It's 3am and I'm looking at you
Wanting to love you more, not because I have to
Wondering if you're dreaming of a better outcome, don't think you're outdone
You're always 1 up, no else can match you
Remember when we met
Not saying that I'd forget
A couple months later, the love was obvious
The wall that I built, crumbled from common sense
Finally said it out loud after building the confidence
and you have me
Even though my heart doesn't show it, baby I'm happy
I know I'm not easy to talk to, you can ask me
Only saw what I brought to the table, not what I'm lacking
One foot on keeping it going and one on packing
I'm being hypocritical
I do all that, when I'd hate to see you go
Kisses to your cheek, say I love you while you sleep
Never a point without the other, some day we'll find our peace

I love it when you're calling me that
I promise you I'm coming right back
I'll never just walk away from you, walk away from you
I'm sorry if I'm not too attached
I promise you I'm coming right back
I'll never just walk away from you, walk away from you

You only see the best version of me
When I can't carry my burdens, you take it further than me
You know about me, everything and all about my losses
Tried to, get it out before, we ever finally cross it
Wouldn't want my life to be a surprise
How could I build with you on a foundation of lies
My abandonment issues, you right there
To when you wake me up from all my nightmares
See me late night watching videos of my dad
Knowing I'm tryna heal but I don't feel I have the chance
And how losing my mama would break me as a man
Giving me your heart so I can live, whenever you can
I don't believe in signs, but it's real clear
Knowing what I know and you still here
Kisses to your cheek, say I love you while you sleep
Never a point without the other, some day we'll find our peace

I love it when you're calling me that
I promise you I'm coming right back
I'll never just walk away from you, walk away from you
I'm sorry if I'm not too attached
I promise you I'm coming right back
I'll never just walk away from you, walk away from you
