Don’t beat the love out of me Don’t make it seem like I’m everything That you ever needed Don’t beat the love out of me I’m only here ‘cause you told me to stay You can tear all of this down You can try and run me from your town You can burn everyone down But it will leave you alone… And I’ll still love you, though I don’t know why No, I don’t know why Call it black when it’s clear that it’s white Go on… Call me back and draw me into another fight Call me to your bed so you can fuck with my head It’s all the same to me But I won’t let you take me down There ain’t no need to run me from your town But you’ll try and try again It’ll leave you alone…alone… I’ll still love you, though I don’t know why No - I don’t know why I’ll still love you - I just won’t be here No - I won’t be here But it doesn’t have to be like this Go ahead and do the things you’re gonna do But I won’t make it worse ‘Cause everything from here is up to you Call it quits for tonight Say that you’re sorry - leave the house for the night Leave your life behind and leave your town You’re all alone Goodbye Goodbye Goodbye And I will still love you But I don’t know why Yeah I will still love you Even as we say goodbye And I will still love you After all this time Yeah - I will still love you Even as we say Even as we say goodbye Goodbye Goodbye Goodbye Goodbye

about

When the end is reached, and yet we still hope for better.

We have all been here before, and we all know that relationships are hard.

"I'll Still Love You" is the summing up of all that was, and that which may yet be.
