I Still Know You

Intro: The sparrows tend to fall asleep The wind doesn't speak to me no more The water that becomes the sea It holds me until I can't breathe at all I dream of things I've never seen The sunlight doesn't wait for me now My demons, they walk with me They tell me that I let you down You were just a heartbeat, yet to come alive Just two feet, yet to stand upright Was just three times we cried that night 'Cause it was four months until you arrived And though I'll never be able to describe How you were born with your mother's eyes And how your hands felt when they met mine And how Luke thinks we look alike If I'm wed, I'd tell her she's beautiful And that I think she should smile more You'd never know, but she misses you More than anyone she's known And though I'll never Get to recognize your voice On the other line when you've grown And made me proud to call you mine I still know you, I still know you You were just a heartbeat, yet to come alive Just two feet, yet to stand upright Was just three times we cried that night 'Cause it was four months until you arrived And though I'll never be able to describe How you were born with your mother's eyes And how your hands felt when they met mine And how Luke thinks we look alike I'll keep you safe inside my mind As I try to say goodbye There was more than one heart That stopped that night If I'm honest I'll keep you safe inside my mind As I try to say goodbye There was more than one heart That stopped that night If I'm honest You were just a heartbeat, yet to come alive Just two feet, yet to stand upright Was just three times we cried that night 'Cause it was four months until you arrived And though I'll never be able to describe How you were born with your mother's eyes And how your hands felt when they met mine And how Luke thinks we look alike I'll keep you safe inside my mind As I try to say goodbye There was more than one heart That stopped that night I'm so sorry
