Still Gonna Call

I know what they

told me. I heard 'em.

I drove past your street and I didn't slow down 'Cause if

I slow down then I gotta turn around And if I turn

around then I'm standing at your door And if I'm at your

door then I gotta face it's yours no more So I keep

it moving, keep the radio loud

Keep pretending you're just somewhere in the crowd I ain't ready for

the silence where your voice used to be So I'll just keep

on driving 'til it don't feel like grief

They say you're in a better place But I don't know that

place, I ain't seen it

I just know you ain't called me back And I'm still waiting

on the reason

I'm still gonna call you,

I'm still gonna try

I know you just moved,

I know you're alright You're in a new home now,

somewhere far away And I'll see you when I see you,

that's what I'll say I'm still gonna call you,

I'm still gonna wait

I know you just moved,

you ain't gone, you just changed You're in a new home now,

and I'm happy for you I just wish you would've told me

the truth (ooh)

Your folks looked at me different at the store last week They

didn't say nothing, just looked at their feet And I smiled and

said "they've been busy,

they'll call" And they nodded real slow like they knew it was

false I ain't stupid,

I know what they're all trying to say But if I say

it back, then I gotta live in that day So I'm keeping

you here, in the present,

in my phone You ain't gone,

you just moved

— you're in a new home

They say you're in a better place

But I don't know that place,

I ain't seen it

I just know you ain't called me back

And I'm still waiting on the reason

I called you twice today,

straight to the machine I called you three more times,

'cause I don't know what it means

I called your brother,

he ain't pick up either I called your old house,

somebody else answered And I hung up fast 'cause I ain't ready

to hear That the voice on the other end ain't yours,

it's been a year

And I know, I know,

I know, I know,

I know

But knowing and believing are two different roads

And I'm standing on the one that don't lead to your grave

'Cause I'd rather live a lie

than admit you ain't stay

I'm still gonna call you,

I'm still gonna try

I know you just moved,

I know you're alright You're in a new home now,

somewhere far away And I'll see you when I see you,

that's what I'll say I'm still gonna call you,

I'm still gonna wait I know you just moved,

you ain't gone, you just changed You're in a new home now,

and I'm happy for you

I just wish you would've told me the truth (ahhhh)

I'll call you tomorrow.

Same time as always.

You're just in a new home now.

That's all.

That's all.
