[Verse 1]
I only got you in my stories
And you know I tell them right
And 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
[Pre-Chorus]
Every step I take, you
used to lead the way
Now I'm terrified
to face it on my own
[Chorus]
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...
[Verse 2]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
Every step I take, you
used to lead the way
Now I'm terrified to
face it on my own
[Chorus]
You're not there
To celebrate the
man that you made
You're not there
To share in my my
success and mistakes
Is it fair?
You'll never know
the person I'll be
You're not there
With me...
[Break]
Time can heal your wounds if
You're strong and standing tall
I've been doing all of that,
it didn't help at all
They say "You'll grow older,
and it'll get better still"
Yes, I will, but no it won't
They don't get it, cause...
[Chorus]
You're not there
To celebrate the man that you made
You're not there
To share in my my success and mistakes
Is it fair?
You'll never know the person I'll be
You're not there
With me...
