Nick Jonas Sings Out About Diabetes
The Jonas Brothers’ new album, Little Bit Longer, takes its title from a song Nick Jonas wrote about his struggle with diabetes.
The Jonas Brothers have a new album coming out August 12 on Hollywood Records. The album Little Bit Longer takes its title from a song Nick Jonas wrote about his struggle with diabetes. Nick told Entertainment Weekly that he wrote the song on a day when he was feeling down and out. He went into an empty hotel ballroom and walked out with a song. Talk about making lemonade when life gives you lemons! Thanks, Nick, we can’t wait to hear your new tunes.
Here are the lyrics to “A Little Bit Longer” as posted on the Jonas Brothers’ diabetes website, Change for the Children.
Got the news today
But they said I had to stay
A little bit longer
And I'll be fine
When I thought it'd all been done
When I thought it'd all been said
A little bit longer
And I'll be fine
But you don't know what you got
'Till it's gone
And you don't know what it's like
To feel so low
Everytime you smile or laugh you glow
You don't even know
No no
You don't even know
All this time goes by
Still no reason why
A little bit longer
And I'll be fine
Waitin' on a cure
But none of them are sure
A little bit longer
And I'll be fine
But you don't know what you got
'Till it's gone
And you don't know what it's like
To feel so low
And every time you smile or laugh you glow
You don't even know
No no
You don't even know
No no
Two, three, four!
Yeah!
And you don't know what you got
'Till it's gone
And you don't know what it's like
To feel so low
And everytime you smile or laugh you glow
You don't even know
No
So I wait 'till kingdom come
All the highs and lows are gone
A little bit longer
And I'll be fine
I'll be fine

This is great; my 10 year old son has had type 1 diabetes for 1 year and he loves Nick. This song has made my son feel a little better about his diagnosis.
THanks Nick
OMG I LOVE HIM! MY UNCLE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH TYPE 2 DIABETES THE DAY AFTER MY BIRTHDAY (TALK ABOUT A BIRTHDAY PRESENT) I HAVE A VERY HIGH RISK OF GETTING IT.
I think NICK has gone though a lot lately with all this drama around him. I support him & all others with TYPE 1diabetes.Stay stong and healthy.
What an inspiration!! Thank you Nick!
Thanks!!! My daughter was recently diagnosed at 5. You are a great inspiration to her. She cried when I read her your new song. The Camp Rock dvd is worn out.Keep up the great work!!!!

KEEP ON ROCKING!!
Hello Nick!
I just want to say that you are my everything. I'm such a BIG fan. I love the song "A little bit longer".
When I herd it fore the first time I started to cry. But when i wached a picture of you that I have in my room, I fell a bit better. I didn't knew that you had diabetes, but I thought it was a bit cool and sweet to. So I understand you know, again. You are so brave! If I had diabetes, I think I should understand you better. But I understand that you have it tough. So don't bring yourself done, just think: "It's going to be ok" everytime you feel so low. That would help a lot, I think. It does for me when I fell low.Okey, thats were all for me. Buy, Nick!
P.S I love you D.S
Victoria Christensen from Sweden
'Cause I'm burning up, burning up
Fore you baby
i LOOOOOOVE YOU NICK!
Just wanted to say, I'm not in the age group that would normally listen to this type of music, but I'm going to go buy it today! It conveys a message of a glimmer of hope, but you continue to deal with the highs and lows that the disease dishes out and go on living it one day at a time. It also sounds to me, that he's not expecting a cure, which I think is how most of us feel. After all, why cure when big companies make BIG money off our disease. Talk about stock market crashes...think of how a cure for diabetes would affect those big companies who are on the stock exchange. Good luck Nick and thank you for spreading awarness! Hang in there and keep making a difference!
