“Days go by so fast, don’t wanna spend them with you / so tell me why you’re throwing stones at my back / You know I’m defenseless,” he sings in the first verse.
He continues, “And, girl, we better stop before we say some s— / We’ve been testing our patience / I think we’re better off if we just take a break / And remember what grace is.”
Justin sings in the chorus of the song about holding onto the relationship with his wife, despite their disagreements.
“Baby, I ain’t walking away,” he sings. “You were my diamond / Gave you a ring / I made you a promise / I told you I’d change.”
