Standing Still - Lyrics by Jewel


Lyrics
Cuttin' through the darkest night
In my two headlights
I'm trying to keep it clear
But I'm losing it here
To the twilight
There's a dead end to my left
There's a burning bush to my right
You aren't in sight
You aren't in sight
Do you want me
Like I want you? Chorus
Or am I standing still? Beneath the darkened sky
Or am I standing still? With the scenery flying by
Or am I standing still? Out of the corner of my eye
Was that you that passed me by? Mothers on a stoop
Boys in souped-up coupes
On this hot summer night
Between fight and flight
Is the blind man's sight
And the choice that's right
I roll the window down
Feels like I'm gonna drown
In this strange town
I feel broken down
I feel broken down
Do you need me
Like I need you? Chorus
Sweet sorrow is the call tomorrow
Sweet sorrow is the call tomorrow
Do you love me
Like I love you? Chorus
Oh, you're passing me by
Passing me by
Do you need me like I need you to? Do you want me like I want you? Or are you passing me by? Or am I standing still?
