Still Need You Around (Lost Without You)

(album: Dancing With A Ghost - 2010)

It's times like these where I lose myself in the stories
My old man would tell about life, true love, and war
The kind of war where you beat yourself
'Cause now I've got this stomach pain
The kind of pain that gets worse when the rain hits hard
Like my fist when I try to explain to the wall this mess I'm in
See, I'm tired now and my mind won't quit
Since I got the news that you were sick
I thought of life, of time and death
If I could only use my breathe
I'd breathe my life into your lungs
With love and strength, I have faith I will lift you up
It's a lesson learned

As we move on, I still need your around
I'd be lost without you
I'm not sure I could face this world on my own
No, I don't wanna go on alone
I don't wanna go on alone
I don't wanna go

I'm terrified that this fear exists
And I'm scared I'll come to terms with it, but that's life
You are what you leave
Like the simple lessons my dad taught me
I know we all grow old and die and make our place in another life

I'm glad that there's still time to let you know
I still need your around
I'd be lost without you
I'm not sure I could face this world on my own
No, I don't wanna go on alone
I don't wanna go on alone
I don't wanna go

So live it up, live it up
'Cause you'll never know, never know
Time is always running, it will always guide you home
So live it up, live it up
'Cause you'll never know, never know
Time is always running, it will always guide you home
So live it up, live it up
'Cause you'll never know, never know
Time is always running, it will always guide you home
(I've been up for the past few nights
Worried sick but you'll be alright
'Cause in death there's a whole new life where you'll be waiting)

I don't wanna go on alone
I don't wanna go on alone
I don't wanna go on alone
I don't wanna go on alone
