Standing Still

Was so good seeing you today

It's been a while since you came home

Your mum and dad miss having you around

So they told me on the phone

Crossed the river to the markets

talked about how much they'd 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

Oh, how I missed you

You seem so happy now

While your world is expanding

I feel like I'm standing still (Oooh)

I heard you're the boss now

You said you'd never be in charge

How does it feel telling people what to do?

I guess it wouldn't be too hard

You asked about my brother

Was surprised you hadn't heard

I said we couldn't drop by and just say hello

He's got two years of his sentence to go

Oh, how I missed you

You seem so happy now

While your world is expanding

I feel like I'm standing still (Oooh)

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

Oh, how I missed you

You seem so happy now

While your world is expanding

I feel like I'm standing still (Oooh)

You seem so much older and wiser than me

while I'm still holding on to what it used to be

Your world is expanding

I feel like I'm standing still (Oooh)

Standing still (Ooh)

Standing still (ooh)
