Glad You Exist Lyrics
Here's to all the late-night drunk phone calls that you picked up
Here's to all the bad decisions that you didn't judge
All the love you's and the hate you's and the secrets that you told me
Here's to everyone but mostly us
[Chorus]
There's a couple billion people in the world
And a million other places we could be, but you're here with me
Take a moment just to take it in
'Cause еvery high and every low lеd to this
I'm just so glad you exist
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
[Verse 2]
Hey look what a hello from a stranger turned into
Caught up in a moment like it's just us in this room
All the right words at the right time
And you know 'em 'cause you know me better than anyone else
We don't need anyone else
[Chorus]
There's a couple billion people in the world (Yeah-yeah-yeah)
And a million other places we could be, but you're here with me (Yeah-yeah-yeah)
Take a moment just to take it in
'Cause every high and every low led to this
I'm just so glad you exist
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
Don't you ever go, don't you ever go, don't you ever go changing
Never let me go, never let me go, never let me go, baby
Don't you ever go, don't you ever go, don't you ever go changing
Never let me go, never ever let me go, never let me go, baby
[Chorus]
There's a couple billion people in the world (In the world, yeah-yeah-yeah)
And a million other places we could be, but you're here with me (Yeah-yeah-yeah)
Take a moment just to take it in (Just to take it in, yeah-yeah-yeah)
'Cause every high and every low led to this
I'm just so glad you exist
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
I'm glad you exist
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
About
This is a song about how unbelievable it is when people find love, but what a miracle it is when it happens. It’s also Dan + Shay’s first single of 2021, and arguably their most poignant love song yet.

Shay Mooney:
That song was very special from the beginning. We actually wrote this before COVID had hit. We had written the song and Dan had that title—it was something that he was saying in everyday life. It’s a tough sentiment to write with a title like that. And it’s hard to write those songs sometimes because it’s very universal. It’s ambiguous and people can relate to it in their own way, which is very special when you can pull that off. And we just wanted to spread some love and positivity. A lot of people don’t necessarily have the right words to say, and sometimes a song is just what they need when they need that encouragement.
