Lyrics

Just stay you
You're perfect

You keep asking if you're worth it
Like I could ever let you go
All the things you call imperfect
Are the reasons that you glow

And when the world gets loud around you
And you don't know what to do
Come here, let me hold you closer
Let me show you what I see in you

Just stay you
You're perfect
In every way
You're perfect
I wish you could see your own shine
And how lucky I am that you're mine

No, you don't have to change
Not one little thing
You already take my breath away
Just stay you

You don't have to shine every second
You don't have to win every fight
Even when you fall apart in silence
You're still my favorite light

And if your heart gets tired of running
I'll be the place you come back to
Every scar you think is heavy
Is another reason I choose you

Just stay you
You're perfect
In every way
You're perfect
I wish you could see your own shine
And how lucky I am that you're mine

No, you don't have to change
Not one little thing
You already take my breath away
Just stay you

You think your scars are something I should run from
But I see stories where you only see the pain
You think your heart is too much for someone
But I would choose it over again

Over again
I would choose you again

Just stay you
You're perfect
In every way
You're perfect
I wish you could see your own shine
And how lucky I am that you're mine

No, you don't have to change
Not one little thing
You already take my breath away
Just stay you

Just stay you
You're perfect

A song for someone on your mind

Send it as a warm reminder on an ordinary day. Add something specific you love about them, so the message feels like it could only be for that person. You do not have to describe a flawless relationship or pretend every day is easy to express real affection and appreciation.

A few words to send with it

I love the little things that make you you. The way you laugh, the way you see the world, and the moments that would not feel the same with anyone else.

This is an original suggested dedication, not a quotation from the song.

Keep the feeling close

Some songs become part of a relationship: something to send, return to, or associate with a particular person. Listen whenever this one feels like yours.
