Alex Isley - Still Care lyrics

rate me

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!

Chorus:

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

Chorus:

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!

Chorus:

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!
