SAB shared some thoughts with us regarding her new track via press release:
“I wrote “Happy You Stayed” in the summer of 2021. It was actually written at the same time as the title track of my first EP Sunsets and Heaven. At the time, I was exploring college life as a freshman and realized how different it was to not have the friends you grew up with be therewith you. I ended up writing “Happy You Stayed” for my best friends, basically saying everything Iwanted to say to them. It was my way of saying that even if we’re having different experiences, I’m happy that they stayed and I’m really proud of everything they’re doing. It was saying if you’re struggling right now, just know that I’m also here to be here for you whenever. The story behind the song has a wholesome and heartfelt vibe.”
