Aaron Goodvin highlights a part of his life he’s never shared before with his heartfelt new single “Your Time to Stay”.
The song follows popular tracks “Country Dance” and “Written All Over It” and will be part of his upcoming EP, releasing early next year.
Aaron has been performing “Your Time to Stay” over the past couple months during his shows across Canada and the U.S., including at the 2024 CCMA Songwriters Series.
If you’ve heard it, you know just how moving and emotional it is.
Holding on a Little Longer
Since I first heard this song, I’ve been so excited for it to be released!
Aaron’s signature voice shines through, and the song has those catchy, relatable qualities he’s known for.
However, fans who’ve followed Aaron since his “Lonely Drum” days will see a different side of him in this song.
Instead of an upbeat, foot-tapping song, Aaron takes a slower approach to highlight an emotional situation that many listeners can relate to.
The lyrics tackle the emotional struggles of a relationship on the brink of breaking up. They tell the story of a couple who just got into a fight and are experiencing a severe disconnect.

“We both said some things that we can’t unsay / We’re standing face to face, but we might as well be a million miles away”.
However, there’s a sense of hope as Aaron pleads for his partner to “hold on a little longer” and come out of it stronger. “You’re thinking it’s your time to go, but what if it’s your time to stay?”
This song is really heartfelt and full of optimism, reminding listeners that instead of leaving, it might be worth sticking around and seeing if things can get better.

Behind the Song
Aaron is known and praised for creating hits not just for himself, but other artists as well.
Originally, Aaron thought “Your Time to Stay” was a song meant for someone else.
After a couple of months, Aaron realized that “Your Time to Stay” was actually a reflection of a chapter from his life.
“All relationships have ups and downs and my wife Victoria and I certainly had ours” said Aaron. “Covid was a very tough time for us, and we came so close to ending it. It’s a miracle we are where we are today, still together, and closer than ever with a beautiful little girl, our new daughter, that has completely changed our lives forever.”
