I’m Still Here
Once, sick to my soul
I was eight years old
There, stuck in a bed
The hospital was cold
I was scared as I could be
Till my dad sat next to me
And I heard him say...
I'm still here
You're not alone
And I'll be waiting here beside you
Till it's time to take you home
If all the rest
Should go away
You can hold my hand and count on me to stay
Just hold my hand and count on me to stay
'Cause I'm still here
Now, I have a life
A husband with my wife
Gone, so much of our love
Replaced with tiffs and fights
I wish every day could be
Like the day she married me
When I heard her say...
I'm still here
You're not alone
And I'll be standing here beside you
When you're right and when you're wrong
If all the rest
Should turn away
You can kiss me now and count on me to stay
Just kiss me now and count on me to stay
'Cause I'm still here
Well, I'm resting in this church tonight
And the people burn all their candles bright
Tryin' to light their way
Oh, I know that they're a lot like me
When they fold their hands and bend their knees
And hope to hear you say
Lord, won't you say...
I'm still here
You're not alone
And I'll be waiting here in heaven
Till it's time to bring you home
If all the rest
Should turn away
You can say my name and count on me to stay
Just say my name and count on me to stay
'Cause I'm still here
I was eight years old
There, stuck in a bed
The hospital was cold
I was scared as I could be
Till my dad sat next to me
And I heard him say...
I'm still here
You're not alone
And I'll be waiting here beside you
Till it's time to take you home
If all the rest
Should go away
You can hold my hand and count on me to stay
Just hold my hand and count on me to stay
'Cause I'm still here
Now, I have a life
A husband with my wife
Gone, so much of our love
Replaced with tiffs and fights
I wish every day could be
Like the day she married me
When I heard her say...
I'm still here
You're not alone
And I'll be standing here beside you
When you're right and when you're wrong
If all the rest
Should turn away
You can kiss me now and count on me to stay
Just kiss me now and count on me to stay
'Cause I'm still here
Well, I'm resting in this church tonight
And the people burn all their candles bright
Tryin' to light their way
Oh, I know that they're a lot like me
When they fold their hands and bend their knees
And hope to hear you say
Lord, won't you say...
I'm still here
You're not alone
And I'll be waiting here in heaven
Till it's time to bring you home
If all the rest
Should turn away
You can say my name and count on me to stay
Just say my name and count on me to stay
'Cause I'm still here
