Frank Bengier - You're Still There

I showed up twenty seconds later after you had gone
On that day I did not see you glide across the room
I didn't look into your eyes
You never touched my hand
And your warm breath on my chest didn't melt my heart

We spent twenty years apart just running from the blues
'Cause I looked into a window and I stopped to tie my shoes

And you never wore my ring, I didn't see you smile
As your father held your arm walking down the aisle
In that blanket as you held her wrapped up like a jewel
And you didn't cry the first day we dropped her off at school

We spent twenty years apart just running from the blues
'Cause I looked into a window and I stopped to tie my shoes

And I wake up from my worst nightmare
Reach out for you and you're still there
You're still there
You're still there

Sometimes at night in the darkness when it's too hard to see
I don't exist 'cause I'm no one without you next to me
All I hear is just silence hanging in the air
Afraid to reach out for your love and find that nothing's there

I can almost hear you breathing, I know I smell your hair
To be so close and not have you really isn't fair

And I wake up from my worst nightmare
Reach out for you and you're still there
You're still there
You're still there
