you're still here

You're still here
Through it all
You're watched me run and win
You've watched me fall


You picked me up
When I could not
You told me what's the truth
and what is not

and though I know it must be hard to love
a man as weak as me
You've always been willing to give your love graciously
and you're still here

I've pushed away
and shut down
Tried hard to not let you in
pretended you're not around

I've told those lies
to myself
Taken no responsibility
Blamed everyone else

and though I know it must be hard to love
a man as weak as me
You've always been willing to give your love graciously
And in the midst of everything
you've been the only one
to stand with me faithfully
until the storm is done
and you're still here
still here
