Nora Rose - A Little Bit Longer Lyrics

We tried, we tried so hard and we cried
You said I didn't mess up this time
It was just a little much to be mine

And I flourished, in your love I finally nourished
But I can only feel the rain since the sun walked away
Why couldn't we just stay the same

But I only, only wanted you to be with me
Until we were a little bit stronger, I could've carried us a little bit longer
And I'm aching, bending over backwards and breaking
We could've been a little bit stronger
If you had loved me just a little bit longer

Feels like the world is reversing all this time I got used to conversing
But here I am just staying silent, cause the change, it feels so violent
And I loved you, even through the nights that we argue
We used to be on the same side, but green turned to a red light

But I only, only wanted you to be with me
Until we were a little bit stronger, I could've carried us a little bit longer
And I'm aching, bending over backwards and breaking
We could've been a little bit stronger
If you had loved me just a little bit longer

And I wish we could say it was 50 percent
And I would be the only one who would know what that meant
And we would cry and laugh
And I wish that they didn't get into your head
And for once in your life would've listened to what I said
Then maybe you would not have left

But I only, only wanted you to be with me
Until we were a little bit stronger, I could've carried us a little bit longer
And I'm aching, bending over backwards and breaking
We could've been a little bit stronger
If you had loved me just a little bit longer

Just a little bit
Just a little bit
I could've carried you just a little bit

Cause I love you, and I'm trying to
Grow to you, with you and beside you.
