You’re always here
It’s like you never went away
You’ve been gone for what
A month, six years?
But here you are each day
In my cup of morning coffee
There you are
Just swimming 'round
With that stupid smile
Like yesterday
And here I’d hoped you’d drowned
Your dent is in the pillow
And your scent is in my nose
You’re in my walk-in closet
Making cracks about my clothes
You’re in my ear
You’re always here
It’s like you never said so long
Come to think of it You never did
And maybe that’s what’s wrong
'Cause someone killed your gecko
And I know it wasn’t me And who drank all the bourbon
And eat all that Sara Lee?
Who smashed your PS2
And set your favorite chair on fire?
And who’s the absent lover?
Who’s the leaver, who’s the liar?
The answer’s clear
The blame is yours, my dear
You’re always here
And it’s weird the way you’re here
In ways you never were before
I think I know you better
Since you slithered out that door
You don’t know what you’ve got
So they say
Until it’s gone
If only you would go I could try that theory on And by go, I mean come back
And by come back, I mean to stay
It’s the only thing, I think
Will make you finally go away
Won’t you just come home?
So I can leave this all behind
Please, get back in my life
So I can get you off my mind
Because I find
That when you’re here
I know exactly what I missed
I can sleep with you beside me And forget that you exist
I need you and your special
Slightly damaged, special chair
Starring at John Stuart
Like I’m barely even there
I need you to remind me To forget you once again
To fade into the woodwork
Just the way you did back when
And disappear
My love, I need you near
I’m shit but I’m sincere
'Cause the thing that I need so Is the thing that I most fear
That’s to know that you won’t go You’re always here
