I try to walk away in silence, pretending I was strong enough. But every road I've taken lately, leads me back to us. I hear your voice in every shadow, feel your touch in empty space. No matter how far I keep running, I still see your face. And I can't lie to my heart anymore, there's a truth I can't ignore. I still need you in my life, like the stars need the night. Like a song needs a melody to feel alive. I still need you by my side, through the tears that I hide. No matter how hard I try, I still need you tonight. I kept pretending I was healing, but every moment feels the same. There's a missing piece inside me, calling out your name. Memories won't fade to nothing, they're written deep in me. Every breath I take keeps whispering, you're where I wanna be. And I can't fight what I feel anymore, you're the one I'm living for. I still need you in my life, like the stars need the night. Like a song needs a melody to feel alive. I still need you by my side, through the tears that I hide. No matter how hard I try, I still need you tonight. I need you in my life, more than words can describe. You're the dream I can't deny, burning inside. I still need you here with me, you're my only remedy. Even if it breaks my heart, I won't set you free.
