Still Be Here

(albüm: Fishing Blues - 2016)

I didn't believe that I could have anything else to share
I mean that I knew I could help somewhere
But I never felt as bare as when I felt your stare
That's what I get for thinking that I'm self-aware

We purposely search for what the purpose be
But the truth is I wasn't even present in the currently
I coulda been a phone call for an emergency
From some hotel on Bourbon Street

I try to keep reminding my mind that what's mine
It's just a asinine way to pass the time
Go, hold your kids 'fore they grow too big
Like a minute is forever when a memory's a gift

Give this one to anyone
No box, no lines made of dots, no labels or locks
Gotta brave through the pain that we're shaking it off
Shave with the crane and aim for the top

I wanna give you the world like it was mine to share
I'll still be here, I'll still be here
You'll always have my words, I try to speak 'em clear
I'll still be here, I'll still be here

And if that don't work, I might be unprepared
But I'll still be here, I'll still be here
From the bad to the worst, my love's sincere
I'ma still be here, I'll still be

And I'll still be fascinated by the freedom of wings
I wanna know what you dream with no strings
Looking at shadows and the shapes on the ceiling
Make a little noise to communicate your feelings
I feel fortunate, I found fulfillment
I see my father in the faces of my children
I'm so vain that my heart's like a rooster
You make it hard to be afraid of the future

And when I hear you singing along
I remember that I'll never be alone again
Judge me on what I depend upon
I want forever to spend with my fam' and my friends

And I still be guilty
Of challenging the people that balance and build me
That's why I'm speaking to you and when you reach it too
You can pick up the pieces and see what it do

I wanna give you the world like it was mine to share
I'll still be here, I'll still be here
You'll always have my words, I try to speak 'em clear
I'll still be here, I'll still be here

And if that don't work, I might be unprepared
But I'll still be here, I'll still be here
From the bad to the worst, my love's sincere
I'ma still be here, I'll still be

And I ain't gonna front like I deserve your love
I'm still trying to learn to love
It's my long term ambition
But the burden burns so big you can't miss it
It was worth the tears
I want my verses to persevere
I don't need a souvenir to prove that I was here
'Cause ever since you appeared, it's been a happy new year

I'd give you the world like it was mine to share
I'll still be here, I'll still be here
You'll always have my words, I try to speak 'em clear
I'll still be here, I'll still be here

And if that don't work, I might be unprepared
But I'll still be here, I'll still be here
From the bad to the worst, my love's sincere
I'ma still be here, I'll still be
