Standing Behind You

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Baby, I miss you, the room still knows your name Your jacket on the kitchen chair, untouched since yesterday I count the little reasons I should let the feeling go Then your face returns like a photograph I hold [Pre-Chorus] I turn the lock, I kill the lamp But something keeps me looking back [Chorus] Always open your eyes See me standing behind you Not to frighten your heart I just need to remind you Baby, I miss you always More than these words can find you Open your eyes, my love I’m still standing behind you [Verse 2] The hallway carries footsteps that dissolve before they land I say your name so softly, it disappears into my hands Every morning brings a silence I have learned to recognize Still I wait beside the doorway for the moment you arrive [Pre-Chorus] I turn the lock, I kill the lamp But something keeps me looking back [Chorus] Always open your eyes See me standing behind you Not to frighten your heart I just need to remind you Baby, I miss you always More than these words can find you Open your eyes, my love I’m still standing behind you [Bridge] If you can hear me through the walls If you can feel me when you dream I never left the place we were I’m closer than I seem [Final Chorus] Always open your eyes See me standing behind you Baby, I miss you always There is nothing I can hide from you Open your eyes, my love Let the silence come through I’ll be standing behind you Still standing behind you [Outro] Baby, I miss you always Open your eyes
