You´re Not There Lyrics

I only got you in my stories
And you know I tell them right
Remember you and I, when I'm awake at night
So give it up for fallen glory
I never got to say goodbye
I wish I could ask for just a bit more time

Every step I take, you used to lead the way
Now I'm terrified to face it on my own

You're not there
To celebrate the man that you made
You're not there
To share in my success and mistakes
Is it fair?
You'll never know the person I'll be
You're not there
With me

Though I know that you're not there
I still write you all these songs
It's like, you still got the right to know what's going on
As I struggle to remember how you used to look and sound
Sometimes I still think I can spot you in the crowd

Every step I take, you used to lead the way
Now I'm terrified to face it on my own

You're not there
To celebrate the man that you made
You're not there
To share in my my success and mistakes
Is it fair?
You'll never know the person I'll be
You're not there
With me

Time can heal your wounds if
You're strong and standing tall
I've been doing all of that, it didn't help at all
They say you'll grow older, and it'll get better still
Yes, I will, but no it won't
They don't get it,

'Cause you're not there
To celebrate the man that you made
You're not there
To share in my my success and mistakes
Is it fair?
You'll never know the person I'll be
You're not there
With me

What is the Meaning of You´re Not There?

A poignant journey of loss and longing, this lyrical masterpiece is a tribute to the absence of a significant person in the singer's life. The lyrics paint an emotional picture of the void left by this person, who was instrumental in shaping his identity and life path. The song resonates with the ache of missing someone who should have been there to witness his growth and achievements. It's a bitter-sweet symphony that underlines how time doesn't necessarily heal all wounds, especially when it comes to losing someone close. A touching reminder that our loved ones live on through our memories and stories, even if they're not physically present to share in our journey. #Loss #Longing
