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
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 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
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
I only got you in my stories
And you know I tell them right
And remember you and I
