I still tumble for you


I’m not gonna wait around
For you to change your mind
Not gonna chase the ghost
That you left behind
I’m not gonna wait to see
If you come back around for me
Not gonna waste my time
On no foolish misery...
Still I don’t know why
I keep thinking of you
I keep looking down the road
Hoping I might find you
I can’t tell you why
I’m writing these words for you
I guess I can’t deny
That I still tumble for you...

But I’m not gonna wait around
To see what you decide
Not gonna take revenge
On the love I’ve been denied
Not gonna hope and pray
You come begging on your knees
Not gonna conjure up your face
From my drunken memories...
Still I don’t know why
I keep a pillow empty for you
I keep looking down the hall
Hoping I might find you
I can’t tell you why
I’m writing poems for you
I guess I can’t deny
That I still tumble for you...
