Still around

[acoustic melody with subtle background piano]

I’ve made my mistakes…
Watched you drift away…
But I still remember, your lips, how they taste
Burning through my veins
For one last embrace
Can we breathe this moment in?
Before it all breaks, and I’m left here hoping
(That you’d stay somehow)
What’s lost can’t be found
But I’m still around…

[soft, low piano build]

They say the distance makes, the heart grow fonder…
Is that why it hurts more when the nights get longer? 
You knew me better than I knew myself…
Is that why it hurts to see you love somebody else? 

[acoustic guitar solo]

So I’ll close my eyes, and let the memory stay
your heartbeat in my chest like it never went away…
And I’ll hold the ghost of you, while dancing all alone…
Sometimes the music stops when i’m all my own…
And I still trace your hands in mine to feel you close…
They say the pain don’t leave, and nothing fills the hole…
So I’ll keep missing you, the things I won’t get back
Even if it breaks me…I can live with that.

And if you ever turn around…
You’ll still find me here somehow
What’s lost can’t be found
But I’m still… around

They say the distance makes, the heart grow fonder…
Is that why it hurts more when the nights get longer? 
You knew me better than I knew myself…
Is that why it hurts to see you love somebody else? 

Ohh the distance, makes the heart grow fonder
And everything hurts more
the nights keep getting longer
(Whoa oh oh)
The emptiness you left keeps getting stronger
Can’t help myself the tide just keeps pulling me under 
You knew me better than I knew myself…
Is that why it hurts to see you love somebody else? 
(Whoa oh ohhh) 

if you ever turn around…
You’ll still find me here somehow
What’s lost just can’t be found
But I’ll still be… around
