I've spent my life following things I can not see
|
And just when I catch up to them they slip away from me
|
I've been down a thousand trails I've never walked before
|
I found out that without fail they lead me to your door
|
And the world keeps turning round and round
|
It leaves me hanging in the air
|
My heart keeps turning upside down
|
And you're still standin' there
|
Lately I see all the signs
|
I feel it in the wind
|
The same thing happens every time that you come back again
|
I admit that there are nights
|
when I sit up and cry
|
But sometimes i turn out the lights and pray you'll pass me by
|
And the world keeps turning round and round
|
It leaves me hanging in the air
|
My heart keeps turning upside down
|
And you're still standin' there
|
|
Since you're gone my empty arms have nothing left to hold
|
And your memory cannot keep me warm but it never leaves me cold
|
And the world keeps turning round and round
|
It leaves me hanging in the air
|
My heart keeps turning upside down
|
And you're still standin' there
|

You're Still Standing There
