Standing Still (Acoustic Version) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Was so good seein’ you today
It’s been a while since you came home
Your mum and dad miss havin’ you around
Or so they told me on the phone
Crossed the river to the markets
Talked about how much they’ve changed
Since I was a kid and I went with Mum, we’d sit there in the winter sun
And plan the rest of Saturday

[Chorus]
But, oh, how I miss you
You seem so happy now
While your world is expandin’, I feel like I’m standin’ still
Ooh
[Verse 2]
I heard you’re the boss now
You said you’d never be in charge
How does it feel tellin’ people what to do?
I guess it wouldn’t be too hard
You askеd about my brother
Was surprised you hadn’t heard
I said wе couldn’t drop by and just say hello
He’s got two years of his sentence to go[Chorus]
But, oh, how I miss you
You seem so happy now
While your world is expandin’, I feel like I’m standin’ still
Ooh[Post-Chorus]
You seem so much older and wiser than me
Well, I’m still holdin’ on to what it used to be
Your world is expandin’, I feel like I’m standin’ still
Ooh[Bridge]
I hope you’re happy with the choice you made and
Although I’d never say it
Don’t think for a minute that I’m not
Devastated
Ooh
[Chorus]
Oh, how I miss you
You seem so happy now
While your world is expandin’, I feel like I’m standin’ still
Ooh[Post-Chorus]
You seem so much older and wiser than me
Well, I’m still holdin’ on to what it used to be
Your world is expandin’, I feel like I’m standin’ still
Ooh, standin’ still[Outro]
Ooh, standin’ still
Ooh
Ooh
