Acoustic Folk Art 3, Track 9, 03:28
Still Be There
Well he said how are you
And you smiled in reply
You knew he wasn’t asking
He was only saying hi
But you think about the question
‘Cause at times you’d like to die
And you wonder
Why you feel so cold
Yeah, you wonder
Why you feel so cold
You remember when
You once had dreams
You remember when
You used to care
There was hope in your heart
Or at least it seems
And you wonder
Could you find it there
Yeah, you wonder
Could it still be there
Well they say she drove away
And you guess that much is true
All you know for certain is
She’s no longer with you
And the pain just keeps on coming
Every morning like the dew
And you wonder
Why you feel so cold
Yeah, you wonder
Why you feel so cold
You remember when
You once had dreams
You remember when
You used to care
There was hope in your heart
Or at least it seems
And you wonder
Could you find it there
Yeah, you wonder
Could it still be there
<harmonica break>
You tried Jesus for awhile
Like you try on an old shirt
It felt good for awhile
‘Till you left Him in the dirt
Now it’s skin to the wind
As the chill begins to hurt
And you wonder
Why you feel so cold
Yeah, you wonder
Why you feel so cold
You remember when
You once had dreams
You remember when
You used to care
There was hope in your heart
Or at least it seems
And you wonder
Could you find it there
Yeah, you wonder
Could it still be there
Well he said how are you
And you smiled in reply
You knew he wasn’t asking
He was only saying hi
But you think about the question
‘Cause at times you’d like to die
And you wonder
Why you feel so cold
Yeah, you wonder
Why you feel so cold
You remember when
You once had dreams
You remember when
You used to care
There was hope in your heart
Or at least it seems
And you wonder
Could you find it there

This song is about remembering you can come home. Things may not be the same as they were when you left, but you can come home.
