I Stayed When It Hurt - Classic 70s Country

I Stayed When It Hurt - Classic 70s Country Verse 1 The porch light flickered like it knew my name, Midnight wind kept calling me to run away. Your suitcase sat by the bedroom door, Every mile in my chest said, “There’s more.” I’d been fighting ghosts I don’t even know, Every easy exit whispering “go.” But I saw your shadow on the kitchen wall, And something in me wouldn’t fall. Pre-Chorus I could’ve left with my pride intact, Could’ve chased the quiet down the tracks. But love ain’t clean and it don’t desert, So I stayed when it hurt. Chorus I stayed when it hurt, when the truth cut deep, When the nights were long and the words wouldn’t sleep. I stayed when it hurt, when the shine wore thin, When forgiving felt like losing again. I didn’t stay ‘cause it was easy or kind, I stayed ‘cause I promised, I stayed ‘cause you’re mine. I stayed when it hurt. Verse 2 Sunday morning coffee tasted like regret, We danced around the things we never said. I learned how silence can scream out loud, How love can bend without breaking down. There were days I wanted to tear it apart, Blame the world, blame you, blame my heart. But every scar told me what we’re worth, Some things are healed by standing first. Pre-Chorus I could’ve drawn a line in the sand, Said “This is as far as I can stand.” But faith ain’t fire if it never burns, So I stayed when it hurt. Chorus I stayed when it hurt, when the truth cut deep, When the nights were long and the words wouldn’t sleep. I stayed when it hurt, when the shine wore thin, When forgiving felt like losing again. I didn’t stay ‘cause it was easy or kind, I stayed ‘cause I promised, I stayed ‘cause you’re mine. I stayed when it hurt. Bridge Temptation knocked like an old best friend, Said, “Nobody’ll know how the story ends.” But I looked at my hands, saw the life we made, Some roads you don’t take, some debts you pay. I learned love’s a choice you make every day, Not the thrill, not the words, but the way you stay. Chorus (Soft then build) I stayed when it hurt, when the room felt small, When holding on felt harder than the fall. I stayed when it hurt, when the past came first, When hope was thirsty and faith was cursed. I didn’t stay ‘cause I couldn’t leave behind, I stayed ‘cause I promised, I stayed ‘cause you’re mine. I stayed when it hurt. Outro If tomorrow breaks us, I’ll still say this first: Love showed up strongest the night it hurt.
