7 Reasons

Looking back
If we look back at those years
When we were young
And tried to fight all our fears

7 years, filled with scars
Eyes wide opened with a dream
Who would've thought my youth would be like this?

You were there
When the answers weren't clear
Next to me
I didn't know you were near
I'm still confused
At all the signs
Whether life is
The desert or the sea
But you never once gave up on me
Through the times that I was scared to be me

Cause you're the 7 reasons
Why I stayed
Walking here beside you
On good and bad days
Because of you
I learned to love myself
And trust the process of life itself
So if they ask me why I still dream
My seven. My reason
Why I believe

Way back then
When I still bottled the tears
Screamed at the wind
"Yeah, in this life I never win"
Then you came
Mended this heart
Made me begin a brand new start
Cause you never once gave up on me
With every song and every word you sing

Cause you're the 7 reasons
Why I stayed
Walking here beside you
On good and bad days
Because of you
I learned to love myself
And trust the process of life itself
So if they ask me why I still dream
My seven. My reason
Why I believe

People will keep asking why
I choose to walk this road
Why I never stop this
But I won't stop this
Because after every summer
Spring and winter, or fall
There's only seven reasons why I
Do it all

Cause you're the seven reasons why I stayed
Smiled and cried beside you
Remember those days
Because of you
I finally found myself
Through the ups and downs
Yet
You never left

And you're the 7 reasons
Why I stayed
Will be here beside you
On good and bad days
Because of you
I learned to know myself
And trust the process of life itself

So if they ask me why I still dream
And if they ask me why I still believe
And when you'll ask me why I'm still here
My seven. My reason
Only reason
