Still There Was You

Years ago in my distant past
You held my hand and broke my heart
I moved away and found someone new
But still there was you

Grateful since he came my way
The love I never meant to be betray
But, unresolved, the love of my youth
Still there was you

There has always been you
Don’t know how you always knew
Where to find me when I’m feeling down
But it’s clear just the same
Things are never gonna change
As long as you’re still around

I thought I’d never see you again
I thought I’d try to forget what had been
But I found myself unable to
And still there was you

You reappeared as the years turned around
And you say, you don’t begrudge me
The love that I’ve found
And you’re glad I get to be loved like I do
Still there was you

There has always been you
Don’t know how you always knew
Where to find me when I’m feeling down
But it’s clear just the same
Things are never gonna change
As long as you’re still around

I can never see your face without
Wishing we could go some place and
Have the chance to talk things through
Still there was you

I don’t know how to remember you less
Even in my perfect happiness
The dream I longed for years to come true
Still there was you

There has always been you

There has always been you
Don’t know how you always knew
Where to find me when I’m feeling down
But it’s clear just the same
Things are never gonna change
As long as you’re still around

I saw you last night, in the lane
You’ll never know how close I came
For better, for worse, it’s him that I choose
But still, there was you
