don't let em tell you what its all about   im right beside you dreamin you can do without   i know you will but we've never met   always the same, always a safe bet   i know whats happenin i've seen it before   uninvited i'll be comin to your back door   and lock all your windows, hide under your bed   i hear you breathin i know you're there   you can turn off the light   you can turn off your mind   you can shut me out      (chorus)   but i'll still be here   i'll still be here   you can tune me out and try to shut me down   but i'll still be here      you wanna see things all the same   why don't you see things in color for a change   im waitin, listenin, tryin to walk in your shoes   they walk a straight line, such a straight line   i'll drop my fences if you drop your guard    meet me on the front porch stop hiding in your backyard   unlock your windows come out from the bed   your tv's blowin i know you're there   you can turn it around   till you like how it sounds   you can turn me off      (chorus)   but i'll still be here   i'll still be here   you can turn me down but i'll just shout it out   i'll still be here   ohhh      who could wait in empathy   i do love without sympathy   and who's gonna be the one to speak for me      i'll still be here   i'll still be here   still be here   i'll still be here   i'll still be here   i'll still be here   i'll still be here   i'll still be here   uh huh uh uh huh uh huh   i said ill be here   baby like it or not   ohhhhhh
