As long as you´re around (A.I.Barstad)

Start with a line that comes to mind and speak easily
All of the words she wants to hear so tenderly
Find her a place, somewhere to stay
All of the nights you go away
Then make her believe that what she sees is not what she´ll get
Follow her back to the secret place where sweet soul dreams met
Convince her that you are all she needs
She shouldn´t bite the hand that feeds
And cry
Make her cry
Dry her eyes
And make her believe that

As long as you´re around
As long as you hold her
She´ll be okay
As soon as you leave her
She might fall apart
Leave while you love her
Make her forget
Ever knowing your name

You search all around and what you find is not what you need
Instead it´s a girl who´s whole wide world is just incomplete
She has done her time, so let her be
Apologizing endlessly

So why
Do you try
To make her cry
To make her believe that

As long as you´re around
As long as you hold her...

Watch her falling down
Falling to pieces
She´ll be just fine
As soon as you leave her
As long as you´re around
As long as you hold her
She will regret
Ever knowing your name
