Not Around

By Jackopierce (2008)
On album Promise of Summer (2008)

Promise of Summer
This is the house we lived in
This is the place we gave in
This is the conversation now

This was the broken system
Where I stopped listening
But I'm still missing the sound

Is this still a dream?
Do you know my name?
Is it real as it seems?
I'm not playing the game

Just when you think you had her
You're climbing down off that ladder
Friends all know what's the matter now
Somehow she lost that feeling
I got so tired of kneeling
Look at the life I'm leading now
'Cause you're not around
No, you're not around (Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh)
No, you're not around (Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh)

I guess I'm getting better
she's sending back all my letters
I'm wishing I never met her now

So many truths unyielding
Can't keep a wound from healing
Guess this the hands he's dealing now

Is this still a dream?
Do you know my name?
Is it real as it seems?
I'm not playing the game

Just when you think you had her
You're climbing down off that ladder
Friends all know what's the matter now
Somehow she lost that feeling
I got so tired of kneeling
Look at the life I'm leading now
'Cause you're not around
No, you're not around (Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh)
No, you're not around (Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh)

This is the place we gave in (because you're not around)

(Ahhhhhhhhhhh...)
