Country music duo Dan + Shay's “Glad You Exist” is a message of gratitude and hope! Check out the new single and lyric video here...
Dan + Shay have released their brand-new single “Glad You Exist”! Fresh off their fifth consecutive and eighth No. 1 single “I Should Probably Go To Bed,” the duo’s new song comes with a message of hope and gratitude to their fans.
Written by Dan Smyers and Shay Mooney alongside Ryan Lewis, Tayla Parx, and Jordan Reynolds, “Glad You Exist” was announced to fans last Tuesday night with a special message from the duo: “To us, ‘Glad You Exist’ is more than just a song. It’s a message of gratitude and hope. A message to everyone in our lives: our fans, our friends, our families, to remind them all how grateful we are to be on the planet at the same time. It’s truly remarkable when you think about it. We’ve spent the majority of the past year, like many others, searching for answers and a sense of normalcy, but finding comfort in memories of better days (that we all know will return soon). Concerts, bonfires, road trips with friends, even the simple things like date night at a restaurant, or beers at a bar during a football game. This song has taken on a new meaning not being able to see our loved ones in person, but throughout history, music has always had a special way of bringing people together, even when we are furthest apart. These words hold a special place in our hearts, and hopefully they will in yours too. We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again (and again). We’re just so glad you exist. Every. Single. One of you.”
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 yous” and the “hate yous” and the secrets that you told me
Here’s to everyone but mostly us
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 every high and every low led to this
I’m just so glad you exist
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
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 every high and every low led to this
I’m just so glad you exist
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
There’s a couple billion people in the world (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 (Just to take it in)
‘Cause every high and every low led to this
I’m just so glad you exist
I’m glad you exist
