You’re still beside us, still in this room But something is changing and we don’t know what to do How do we hold on through the pain When nothing feels quite the same? We never learned to lose you this way So we’ll love you through each changing day (Verse 2) We bring the pictures one by one Of all the places we have come from You say they’re lovely, turn them around But in those faces you’re not found The names may fade, the words grow few Some days the world feels strange to you But when we sit and hold your hand There’s still a closeness we understand And though the past may drift away Our love is here, and here will stay (Bridge) I’m afraid of the day you won’t know my face Of the silence the time may leave in its place I’m afraid that one day the ache will feel small That I’ll grow used to the hardest thing of all But love was never just names we could say Memories that time could take away And even when the words disappear I’ll be right beside you, I’ll still be here (Outro) If you don’t remember, I’ll remember for two All the little things that made you, you And if you reach for my hand in the night I’ll hold it gently and tell you it’s all right You don’t have to know my name My love for you will stay the same You’re still here... you’re still you. ✨ Connect with Audiovyx: • Subscribe to the channel #AcousticMusic #OriginalSong #Ballad #GriefSupport
