Silvertide Heartstrong
Songwriters: Weaver, Brian; Frank, Kevin; Melchiorre Jr., Mark; Lafty, Walt; Perri, Nick; Leiber;Now I'm still standing here
Awkward and unaware
As you scream the topic's closed
Slam down the telephone
But you swear that you still care
Now I'm still standing here
Confused and somewhat drawn
My head's lost but I'm heartstrong
But you said you've been trying to hold on
For, oh, so long
Now I've been thinking that you might
Like to tag along
But you came off so smooth
With all your character flaws
And I'm thinking about you
And every night I fall
Back into no one's arms
How could you leave this way?
Now I'm still standing here
Awkward and unaware
As you scream the topic's closed
Slam down the telephone
But you swear that you still care
Now I'm still standing here
Confused and somewhat drawn
My head's lost but I'm heartstrong
Yeah, I'm heartstrong
And you've been trying to pick me up like a ghost from the past
But you found that it's hard with your blood stained hands
Yeah, it's real hard
To get a firm grip
And every single minute that you think that your heart's too broke
Then your mind kicks in and screams
Let 'em go 'cause I'm torn asunder with no hope
And every night I fall
Back into no one's arms
How could you leave this way?
Now I'm still standing here
Awkward and unaware
As you scream the topic's closed
Slam down the telephone
But you swear that you still care
Now I'm still standing here
Confused and somewhat drawn
My head's lost but I'm heartstrong
Yeah, I'm heartstrong
I just can't stand to see you smile
From a picture frame
And all I wanna do is touch your face
And take you far away, oh, no, no
I'll take you far away
Now I'm still standing here
Awkward and unaware
As you scream the topic's closed
Slam down the telephone
Now I'm still standing here
Awkward and unaware
As you scream the topic's closed
Slam down the telephone
But you swear that you still care
I'm still standing here
Confused and somewhat drawn
My head's lost but I'm heartstrong
But I'm still standing here
Tell me why?
And I'm still standing here
All this time I'm living a lie
And I'm still standing here
Tell me why?
And I'm still standing here
And I'm heartstrong
