I Will Still Be Here

Take all the time
Time that you need
I’ll still be here
I’d never leave
Mean what I say
Say what I mean
I swear I’ll stay
We’ll be okay
I will work hard
While we’re apart
I will be safe
You have my heart
I miss your laugh
Your kiss and your hands
I won’t give up
I’ll do all I can
I swore I would go to hell and back for you, my dear
I did not expect this hell, but I will persevere
I will still be here

I will write beautiful things for you
When I feel ugly
I feel better, when I write you letters
It so eases my suffering
Love your all, everything, as you are
With no conditions, my dear
On your peaks, and when you feel weak
You are everything I have wished for
Every time I find myself
Enjoying what I hold dear
My heart skips a beat, and I cannot breathe
As my lips mouth “I wish you were here”
Holding you tight in my arms, tightest I’ve ever held someone
Looking in your eyes, weeping in Central Park
Each day I think of that night,
Felt so alive, bathed in your light
You were the sun that rose in my endless dark
You were the sun that rose in my endless dark
I know you feel the pearl glowing in your hands
But I swear I will not grow tired of you
You will always be the one that I want
I will always be a geyser for you
I will always
I will always be a geyser

Standing under the stars with you
In my heart, we’re still there
I’ll think of that night till I die
I miss you like water
But I’m not going anywhere
I’m not going anywhere
I’m not going anywhere
I’m not going anywhere

I don't know what to do without you
I don't know where to put my hands
I've been trying to lay my head down
But I'm writing this at 3am
I don't need the world to see
That I've been the best I can be, but
I don't think I can stand to be
Where you don't see me
On sunny days I go out walking
I end up on a tree-lined street
I look up at the gaps of sunlight
I miss you more than anything
I don't need the world to see
That I've been the best I can be, but
I don't think I could stand to be
Where you don't see me
And autumn comes when you're not yet done
With the summer passing by, but
I don't think I can stand to be
Where you don't see me

And I swear I'll never give up
No demons will triumph over this love
And I swear I'll never give up
No demons will triumph over this love
(I swear I'll never give up, I'll never give up on you)

The Shade

I won’t go
I won’t go
I will stay
Darling I won’t go
We will watch this grow
Please, dear, know
That I’ll stay, I will stay
Through the dark and the rain
Till the sun comes someday
Then we’ll kiss in the shade
I won’t go away
You will see, I’ll stay
Things changed
But my heart has stayed the same
Always said I wasn’t scared
So I’ll do my best to be brave
No storm that I wouldn’t weather
I will keep my light lit bright
So you can find me when you are better
It will all be alright
Stay, I will stay
Through the dark and the rain
Till the sun comes someday
Then we’ll kiss in the shade
I won’t go away
You will see, I’ll stay

Loving you is the easiest thing I’ve ever done
Knew before we even kissed that you were the one
I don’t have to try at all, it comes so easily
I believe in us cuz I love you and you love me
And everything else is a detail
Everything else is a detail
Loving you is effortless, it’s missing you that’s hard
So easy to be in love, but it aches to be apart
Sweetheart, I can bear it all, I swear I’ll keep my nerve
I’d go through so much more than this, you don’t know what you’re worth
In the big picture, this is a detail
In the big picture, this is a detail

Mother's Son

I am my mother’s son
You are my only one
So I can’t help my concern
The worry is a red hot rock in my gut, and it burns
It’s kept so hot
By the fire in my heart
It doesn’t cool
In times when we’re apart
I’d take your pain
And bear it if I could
Cuz I believe
In your inherent good
You are my only one
We had barely begun
So I hope you’ve kept your love
Cuz everything I’m building while you’re gone is all for us
It’s good for me
No matter how this goes
But life with you
Is still my greatest hope
I'll take my pain
And put it to good use
Cuz I believe
In us, myself, and you

Say something
Say something
Say something
Please, darling
Say something
Anything
Tell me you love me
I was never really happy
Until I met you
You could bring me home tomorrow
If you wanted to
Say something
Say something
Say something
Please, darling
Say something
Anything
Tell me you love me
Say something
Say something
Say something
I’m begging
I haven’t breathed one full breath
Since I saw you last
I fall to pieces
When I’m where you can’t see me
Say something
Say something
Say something
Please hear me
I haven’t breathed one full breath
Since I saw you last

I Meant What I Said
01:27
|

|
You’d better believe I meant what I said
But I start every day stuck in my bed
A pain in my chest, an ache in my head
But you’d better believe I meant what I said
You’d better believe I meant what I said
You’d better believe I meant what I said
I meant it when I said that I’d stay
But I struggle to stay sane while I wait
My focus is pulled by my different pains
But I meant it when I said that I’d stay
I meant it when I said that I’d stay
I meant it when I said that I’d stay
I meant it when I said that I’d stay

Three years from now
You love yourself
You have your health
We have a dog
Three years from now
You have a Milhouse tattoo
And a key rack you use
And we laugh a lot
Three years from now
You feel better at night
And when you don’t feel alright
It’s not so hard to bear
Three years from now
You think that you’re kinda cute
And you’re kinder to you
And I’m still there
Things will get better
Though not in a straight line
I’ll help you find patience
To get through the dark times
Things will get better
On Lisa, I swear it
There will be pain, dear
But I’ll help you bear it
Three years ago
You hated to live
You wanted to quit
And nothing went right
But it’s been three years
And you’ve got so much love
And sure, things are tough
But now I’m by your side
Three years from now
We write every day
And our things get made
And our heads are pretty clear
Three years from now
You feel such great purpose
And no, things aren’t perfect
But you’re so glad you’re here
Things will get better
Though not in a straight line
I’ll help you find patience
To get through the dark times
Things will get better
And I’ll always help
You‘ll learn your own power
And one day, you‘ll be well
Three years from now
You love yourself
You have your health
We have a dog

I did not begin this love
To meet you at Blue Diner
The pearl's light's opaque, I'll wash it away
I am not a mistake, I'm a geyser
