ANDERSON BILL Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(Still) though we're far apart
(I love you still)
(Still) after all this time
(Still) you're still on my mind
(I love you still)
I've lost count of the hours and I've lost track of the days
Just about everything since you went away
Everything, that is, except the memories you left me
And that's one thing that no one can mar
I don't know who you're with I
Don't even know where you've gone
My only hope is that some day you might hear this
Song and you'll know that I wrote it especially for you
And I love you, wherever you are after all this time
(Still) after all this time
(Still) you're still on my mind
(I love you still)
This flame in my heart is like an eternal fire
For every day it burns hotter and
Every day it burns higher
And I haven't been able to put out one little flicker, not even with all of these tears
My friends think I'm crazy and maybe I am
But I'll carry this torch just as long as I can, for some day
You might just decide to come home and I want you to know I'm still here
(Still) though you broke my heart
(Still) though we're far apart
(I love you still)

We've been together since way back when
We have been together for a very long time
Sometimes I never want to see you again
Occasionally, I don't want to be around you
But I want you to know, after all these years
I want to let you know, even after all this time
You're still the one I want whisperin' in my ear
You are the only one I want whispering in my ear
You're still the one -- I want to talk to in bed
You are still the person I want to talk to in bed
Still the one -- that turns my head
You are still the one who catches my attention
We're still having fun, and you're still the one
We are still enjoying each other's company and you are still the one for me
I looked at your face every day
I saw your face every day
But I never saw it 'til I went away
I didn't truly appreciate your face until I left
When winter came, I just wanted to go (wanted to go)
When winter arrived, I had a desire to leave
Deep in the desert, I longed for the snow
While in the desert, I wished for snow
That makes me laugh
You have a great sense of humor that makes me laugh
Still the one -- that's my better half
You are still my other half
You're still the one -- that makes me strong
You are still the one who gives me strength
Still the one -- I want to take along
You are still the one I want to take with me
Changing, our love is going gold
Even though we are changing, our love is becoming better
Even though we grow old, it grows new
Even though we are getting older, our love feels new
You're still the one -- that I love to touch
You are still the one I love touching
Still the one -- and I can't get enough
You are still the one who satisfies me
You're still the one -- who can scratch my itch
You are still the one who can fulfill my desires
Still the one -- and I wouldn't switch
You are still the one I want and I wouldn't change it
You are still the one -- that makes me shout
You are still the one who makes me want to shout with joy
Still the one -- that I dream about
You are still the one I dream of
We're still having fun, and you're still the one
We are still enjoying ourselves, and you are still my one and only
You're still the one, yeah still the one
You are still the one, yes, still the one
We're still having fun, and you're still the one
We are still having a great time, and you are still my perfect match
