What’s the point of saying anything at all?) I’ll always be your confidant Best friend, I won’t forget our stuff And if we ever twist back to touch again I’ll be bright as I was Cause I’m still showing up, I’m still showing up for you You say you’re growing up, But I know it isn’t true I’m still showing up, I’m still showing up for you Don’t tell me that you’re stuck- I’d go all the way for you
