Standing Lyrics - While You Can - Lucy Woodward

[Chorus] 

There could've been a better way 

But you had to push me away to be alone 

How come the things that I can't touch 

Are the things that hurt so much 

Well I'll never know 

3 days under my belt and I can't remember the last 

thing you said 

But you were 15 inches away from me 

You mumbled something 'bout you and me 

The land of the free under the same breath 

Well, I already knew 

I already knew you were fading 

[Chorus] 

'Cause I'm already standing here on my own 

And I don't understand it baby just what went wrong 

3 days under my belt 

I'm staring at the ceiling once again 

Your closure is just ripping me wide open 

And I want to scream but I know it won't bring you 

back to me 

So your independence wins 

I hope you're finding out what the hell that is 

[Chorus] 

[Bridge] 

Don't you look for me 

Don't you cry for me 'cause I'm alright 

Something new begins when something ends 

I'm alright 'cause it's what you gotta do 

Just so you understand 

I'm standing 

[Chorus] 

And there could've been a better way 

But you had to push me away to be alone 

How come the things that I can't touch 

Are the things that hurt so much 

guess I'll never know 

And I shoulda tried to to change your mind 

But I didn't feel you still were mine so I let it go 

'Cause I'm already standing here on my own 

And I don't understand it baby just what went wrong 

So take one good look at me 

Before you move on 

I'm standing I'm standing where I belong
