You're Not There

I only got you in my stories

And you know I tell them right

I remember you and I,

When I'm awake at night

So give it up for fallen glory

I never got to say goodbye

I wish I could ask

For just a bit more time

Every step I take, you used to lead the way

Now I'm terrified to face it on my own

You're not there

To celebrate the man that you made

You're not there

To share in my success and mistakes

Is it fair?

You'll never know the person I'll be

You're not there with me

Though I know that you're not there

I still write you all these songs

It's like, you got the right to know what's going on

As I struggle to remember

How you used to look and sound

At times I still think I can spot you in the crowd

Every step I take, you used to lead the way

Now I'm terrified to face it on my own

You're not there

To celebrate the man that you made

You're not there

To share in my success and mistakes

Is it fair?

You'll never know the person I'll be

You're not there with me

Time can heal your wounds if

You're strong and standing still

I've been doing all of that,

It didn't help at all

They say, you'll grow older

And it will get better still

Yes, I will, but no it won't

They don't get it

You're not there

To celebrate the man that you made

You're not there

To share in my success and mistakes

Is it fair?

You'll never know the person I'll be

You're not there with me

You're not there

You're not there

You're not there

You're not there
