Even now when there's someone else who cares,
When there's someone home who's waiting just for me.
Even Now I think about you as I'm climbing up the stairs,
And I wonder what to do so she won't see
That Even Now when I have come so far,
I wonder where you are,
I wonder why it's still so hard without you,
Even Now when I come shining through,
I swear I think of you, and how I wish you knew,
Even Now.

Even Now when I know it wasn't right,
And I've found a better life than what we had
Even Now I wake up crying in the middle of the night,
And I can't believe it still could hurt so bad.
Even Now when I have I have come so far,
I wonder where you are,
I wonder why it's still so hard without you,
Even Now when I come shining through,
I swear I think of you, and how I wish you knew,
Even Now.

Even Now when I never hear your name,
And the world has changed so much since you've been gone.
Even Now I still remember and the feelings still the same,
And this pain inside of me goes on and on Even Now.
I have come so far,
I wonder where you are,
I wonder why it's still so hard without you,
Even Now when I come shining through,
I swear I think of you, and how I wish you knew,
Even Now.
