I Still Love You

Intro

(la da da, la da da)

Verse

She shuts the bedroom door in our big quiet house

Teens are out or sleeping, the day’s been wearing her down

Cars in the driveway shining under the moon

But the bills on the table keep circling around

Verse

She waits with the lamp low, eyes heavy from the load

Hoping he’ll come up soon, before the hours erode

He sits at the kitchen counter, glass in his hand

Staring at the numbers, trying to understand

Chorus

I still love you, love you

Through the silence in our bed

I still love you, love you

Even when the spark feels dead

I still love you, love you

When the money pulls us thin

I still love you, love you

Let me pull you in again

Verse

Hours later the door creaks, he steps inside the room

She’s already drifted off, waiting in the gloom

He slides beneath the covers, wraps his arms around her frame

Whispers low against her hair, calling out her name

Bridge

“Darling, this love won’t ever fade

Not with the debt or the years we’ve made

I’m sorry for the late nights, sorry for the space

You’re still the one I choose in every single place”

Chorus

I still love you, love you

Through the silence in our bed

I still love you, love you

Even when the spark feels dead

I still love you, love you

When the money pulls us thin

I still love you, love you

Let me pull you in again

Outro

(la da da, la da da)

Tears slip down her cheek

(la da da, la da da)

As he holds her while she sleeps
