"Still Care" lyrics
One time, when I was young
Met somebody that I called the one
Just a big shot and a name
Seemed like it was all fair game
Turned back, what's worse
Half went running, the other got hurt
Oh, what a vision, what a blur
Let's talk about a dream deferred
Energy invested
It ain't hard to know
Maybe if it was hard to see
With all the lights so low
Broken retrospective
A part of love still lives
Trying to forget when there's so much to forgive!
After all this time (after all this time)
I believe that I
I still care, still care!
After all this time (after all this time)
I believe that I
I still care, still care!
We always said one day
We gonna laugh when we're old and gray
We gonna tell 'em how we met
How we got through it all instead
(You're too) Too scared to go on
Just running everything that wasn't wrong
What a story, what a song, I waited too long, yeah!
For all the pretty roses, planted in the ground
Fade away without a touch, they don't make one sound
This is what I'm given, taken day by my past
Trying to put myself first, when I'm stuck on my last
After all this time (after all this time)
I believe that I
I still care, still care!
After all this time (after all this time)
I believe that I
I still care, still care!
I guess I'm too nice and I look for the good that ain't there, oh, oh
I'm mad at myself and ain't no reason why I should still care
There ain't no reason, there ain't no reason, oh, oh, oh!
There ain't no reason, no, no, no
No reason why I should care, none at all, none at all!
After all this time (after all this time)
I believe that
I still care, still care!
After all this time (after all this time)
I believe that I
I still care, still care!
Met somebody that I called the one
Just a big shot and a name
Seemed like it was all fair game
Turned back, what's worse
Half went running, the other got hurt
Oh, what a vision, what a blur
Let's talk about a dream deferred
Energy invested
It ain't hard to know
Maybe if it was hard to see
With all the lights so low
Broken retrospective
A part of love still lives
Trying to forget when there's so much to forgive!
After all this time (after all this time)
I believe that I
I still care, still care!
After all this time (after all this time)
I believe that I
I still care, still care!
We always said one day
We gonna laugh when we're old and gray
We gonna tell 'em how we met
How we got through it all instead
(You're too) Too scared to go on
Just running everything that wasn't wrong
What a story, what a song, I waited too long, yeah!
For all the pretty roses, planted in the ground
Fade away without a touch, they don't make one sound
This is what I'm given, taken day by my past
Trying to put myself first, when I'm stuck on my last
After all this time (after all this time)
I believe that I
I still care, still care!
After all this time (after all this time)
I believe that I
I still care, still care!
I guess I'm too nice and I look for the good that ain't there, oh, oh
I'm mad at myself and ain't no reason why I should still care
There ain't no reason, there ain't no reason, oh, oh, oh!
There ain't no reason, no, no, no
No reason why I should care, none at all, none at all!
After all this time (after all this time)
I believe that
I still care, still care!
After all this time (after all this time)
I believe that I
I still care, still care!
