Lyrics
What if you don't remember the Times I was there
Expressing concern about being forgotten during past times of presence.
You only know my absence and Never how much I cared
Highlighting the awareness of being remembered for absence rather than the care provided.
I hope you know I think of you And the memories we shared Haunted by the past and how I Wasn't there
Reflecting on shared memories, haunted by the regret of not being there in the past.
When I call with nothing to say It's only to make sure you're ok
Calling without a purpose, checking on the well-being, and expressing concern.
To hear your voice helps numb the Pain
Seeking solace in the sound of the other person's voice to alleviate pain.
But this is what you don't see at all When you hang up the tears start To fall
Revealing hidden emotions; tears start when the call ends.
When you drive away I can't stand Tall
Feeling vulnerable and unable to stand tall when the other person leaves.
I'll live this life the best I can do Know this house ain't Home Without you
Commitment to making the best of life, acknowledging that home lacks meaning without the other person.
I never left to get away
Denying leaving to escape but rather to find one's own path.
Only to find my own way
Asserting the purpose of the departure, seeking personal growth.
So why are we hurting like I made A mistake
Expressing confusion about the pain, feeling misunderstood.
I Never left you behind or found Another to call mine
Emphasizing loyalty, never replacing the other person.
Truth is you can't be replaced
Stating the irreplaceable nature of the person, acknowledging their significance.
My heart always kept you safe
Affirming the role of the heart in keeping the other person safe.
When I call with nothing to say It's only to make sure you're ok
Reiterating the purpose of calls, emphasizing concern for the other person.
To hear your voice helps numb the Pain
Using the other person's voice as a coping mechanism for pain.
But this is what you don't see at all When you hang up the tears start To fall
Highlighting hidden emotional turmoil after the call ends.
When you drive away I can't stand Tall
Expressing emotional vulnerability when the other person departs.
I'll live this life the Best I can do Know this house ain't Home
Commitment to living the best life, acknowledging the absence of home without the other person.
With all this said I hope you Believe that you have always been My everything and everyday I Keep you with me you were the One to set my dreams free
Affirming the other person's importance as the center of one's world and source of inspiration.
When you hang up the tears start To fall
Reiteration of emotional response; tears emerge after ending a call.
When you drive away I can't stand Tall
Expressing difficulty standing tall when the other person leaves.
All of these years have come go Pass
Acknowledging the passage of time and experiences.
Don't think of the tears think of
Encouraging a focus on laughter over tears when reminiscing.
The laughs
Expressing determination to reunite soon.
I'll find a way to get there soon
Commitment to making the best of life despite challenges.
I'll live this Life the best I can do
Affirming self-reliance and determination to live the best life possible.
I will always Count on you
Expressing reliance on the other person, counting on their support.
