Steve Vai - I'll Be Around Lyrics

Words fall silent when no one will hear,
Emotions are deadly when there's too much to fear,
Touch a feeling and we feel again.
To know the pleasure, we must know the pain

I'm going down for the last time,
Open your eyes.

Who's gonna hear you when you're callin'?
And who's gonna catch you when you're fallin'?
Who's gonna trust you?
Well I'll be around for a while.

And who's gonna heal you when you're bleeding?
And who's gonna give to you when you're needing?
And who's gonna love you?
Well I'll be around for a while.

When love lies bleeding only fools are bold,
They search for pennies in a pot of gold.
Faith is dying when no one's to trust,
But your soul is crying
And it's glorious.

It's coming down to the last time,
Open your heart.

Who's gonna hear you when you're callin'?
And who's gonna catch you when you're fallin'?
And who's gonna laugh with you,
Well I'll be around for a while.

And who's gonna warm you when you're freezing?
And who's gonna hold you when you're screaming?
And who's gonna promise you
To be around for a while?

There you stand, drowning in the rain,
Kidding yourself the wind don't sting,
And all this time the thing you want is calling to you.

I dig the way, you take that storm,
While spitting in the face of right and wrong.
Well you could let down your defenses
When you're in my arms.

You could touch my face in my arms,
You could dream on and on in my arms,
You would never be alone in my arms,
You could cry like a child in my arms.

Who's gonna hear you when you're callin'?
And who's gonna catch you when you're fallin'?
And who's gonna trust you?
Well I'll be around for a while.

And who's gonna mend you when you're broken?
And who's gonna find you when you're stolen?
And who will always love you?
I'll be around for a while.

And who's gonna shield you when it's rainin'?
And who's gonna kneel with you when you're prayin'?
Who's gonna feel for you?
Well I will, I'll be around for a while.

Who's gonna help you when you're tryin'?
And who's gonna hold you when you're dyin'?
Who's gonna beg you
To be around for a while?
