Little You (The Last 5 Years)
In the last 5 years, we’ve seen our share of tears,
And what we thought might be the end was the beginning.
Whoa-o In the last 5 years, I realized that to have the last word doesn’t mean you’re winning.
And I’ve learned that what you want aint always what you’ll find.
And although you swear you know the outcome, You’ll be left behind.
I’ve seen the beauty of the world and know that this is true
Everything is better…with a little you.
Whoa-o in the last 5 years, I’ve learned that what gets lost in the silence
isn’t worth the cost of saying what you feel.
Whoa-o in the last 5 years, We’ve seen the world turn upside down
and leave us hanging by a thread tied to our heels.
But through it all we stood our ground and proved that love prevails
The times we’ve cried have verified that God’s in the details.
I’ve tasted what the world can give and know that this is true
Everything is better…with a little you.
I’ve learned that what you put it to it, You get back in turn.
And though it isn’t easy, It’s well worth the lessons learned.
And though at times it seemed that these five years would never end.
I came out on top with a new best friend.
Whoa-o in the last 5 years, There were nights when I swore that I would never see
the setting of the sun.
Whoa-o in the last 5 years, The world stood still every time the words “I love you”
Slipped serenely from your tongue.
I’ve learned that those around you sometimes see the truth you don’t
And when I feel I’m sinking, thoughts of you keep me afloat.
We’ve faced the storms and fought the battles And through it all it’s true…
Everything is better with a little you.
