Alexander Rybaks’ Facebook-posting:
“My song for Franklin, “I’m Still Here”
Whatever the competition, and no matter who wins in the end, I sincerely believe that Franklin Calleja has the strongest and most interesting voice in the country of Malta, and I hope that people will understand his great talent for music and help him to the world stage (he is just as amazing live as he is on this video). And if I can help him with this song, I’m truly happy!”
STILL HERE
Take a look around you, everything is changing.
Everything we know, it won’t be the same but
you know what they say: That’s the way love goes.
All the pretty birds and your flowers in your window
staying for the summer, gone in the winter.
Birds fly away. That’s the way love goes.
But I’m still here. I told you, I ain’t going nowhere.
I’m still in love with you
Cause nobody sees me the way you do.
You keep me strong. So every day I’m holding on.
It will be you and me again. Just the two of us again.
Don’t say you’re sorry, sorry cause you left me.
You don’t have to tell me, I know you had your reasons.
Everybody does. That’s the way love goes.
Baby you know where to find me, I will still be waiting.
Waiting for the sunrise even when it’s raining.
As for tomorrow: nobody knows!
Just remember that I’m still here.
I told you, I ain’t going nowhere.
I’m still in love with you
Cause nobody sees me the way you do.
You keep me strong. So every day I’m holding on.
It will be you and me again. Just the two of us again.
I told you, I ain’t going nowhere.
I’m still in love with you
Cause nobody sees me the way you do.
You keep me strong. So every day I’m holding on.
It will be you and me again. Just the two of us again.
It will be you and me. Just the two of us again.
Just the two of us again.
