If you’ve ever felt forgotten…
Like nobody knew your name.
If you’ve ever watched the world keep turning… While everything stayed the
same.
Then maybe…
We’ve already met… Somewhere in the silence.
{thoughtful pause} Some days steal your smile.
Some nights steal your sleep.
But somewhere…
Hope still whispers… Stay.
{quiet suspension
before chorus} The world kept turning… Still I stayed!
When hope said let go… Still I stayed!
One more sunrise… One more day.
I found a reason… To find my way.
Still I stayed.
Still I stayed. {gently swelling instrumental bridge} Sometimes life gets quiet…
So quiet you lose your way.
You forget what hope looks like… You forget
brighter days.
Then something small reminds you… Morning finds the sky.
A laugh you thought had left you… A reason still to smile.
The world never really changed… Only the way I see.
Somewhere along the road… I finally found…
{brief dramatic breath and pause} Me.
The world kept turning… Still I stayed!
When hope said let go… Still I stayed!
One more sunrise… One more day.
I found a reason…
To find my way.
Still I stayed. Still I stayed.
{transition to bridge}
I still have days…
Where yesterday feels close.
I still have moments… When silence says the most.
But every morning… Life asks me the same question.
Will you keep going?
{brief pause} Yes.
{build into final chorus}
The world kept turning… Still I stayed!
When hope said let go… Still I stayed!
One more sunrise… One more day.
If you’re still breathing…
You’re not too late.
Still I stayed.
Still… I stayed. Maybe…
This was never…
Just my song.
Maybe
every soul that’s still standing… Has been singing it all along… {thoughtful
pause} Still I stayed…
