i'm still around

i've been driving since 7am

i left florida behind me now i'm headed west

hit some snow on this old rocky road

now i'm restless so restless

met a girl who lives up in new york

she loves her job and all the people at work

left her mother in the lone star state

but she's okay

she's okay

i'm coming back to life

cause i'm the only one who knows what is right

tell me again cause i'm afraid of slipping under

i'm a leaf in the wind and i'm losing my grip

gotta keep myself from letting go of it now

the higher i get

the further i fall

but i'm still around

i made some money selling demos for cheap

and now i blow it on tattoos and jeans

call me pathetic call me anything but ordinary

cause like a gypsy i will move when i am ready

i'm coming back to life

cause i'm the only one who knows what is right

tell me again cause i'm afraid of slipping under

i'm a leaf in the wind and i'm losing my grip

gotta keep myself from letting go of it now

the higher i get

well the further i fall

but i'm still around

i'm getting older but i'm pushing through

i did some livin' and now i got more to do

i wake up everyday in a new place

go back to bed with a smile on my face

i'm coming back to life

cause i'm the only one who knows what is right

tell me again cause i'm afraid of slipping under

i'm a leaf in the wind and i'm losing my grip

gotta keep myself from letting go of it now

the higher i get

the further i fall

you know the higher

i get the further i fall

i said the higher i get

oh the further i fall

but i'm still around

ooooohhh i'm still around

oooohhh i'm still around

oooohhh i'm still around
