["How do you love without sympathy?","You can shut me out","I’ll still be here","I’ll still be here","","","","","Uninvited, I’ll be coming to your back door","","I’ll drop my fences, if you drop your guard","I’m waiting and listening, trying to walk in your shoes","I’ll still be here","Till you like how it sounds","","I'll still be here","Your TVs glowing, I know you're there","I’ll still be here","Always the same, always the safe bet","Why don’t you see things in color for a change?","You can turn me off, try to shut me down","","I’ll still be here","Lock all your windows, hide under your bed","You can turn off your mind","I’ll still be here","But I’ll still be here","Who did away with empathy?","I’ll still be here","I know you well, but we’ve never met","I’ll still be here","I hear you breathing, I know you’re there","I’m right beside you, a dreamer you can do without","I know what’s happening, I’ve seen it before","I’ll still be here","","","But I’ll still be here","I’ll still be here","I’ll still be here","You can turn me down but I'll just shout it out","Meet me on the front porch, stop hiding in your backyard","You want to see things all the same","You can turn off the light","You can turn it around","I’ll still be here","Don’t let them tell you what it’s all about","I’ll still be here","Unlock your windows, come out from the bed","And who's gonna be the one to speak for me?","...","You can turn me off","","They walk a straight line, such a straight line","I’ll still be here","","But I’ll still be here"]
