After All This Time

After all the broken stones
That were thrown for no good reason
Inside she's loving him still
After all this time.

And though her heart bares the scars
No sign of healing, it's all right
She's loving him still
After all this time, oh yeah.

Trying to push the past away
Still waiting for the lights to change
She'll try, try for the sake
Of their pride, pride.

Learning to barely feel the pain
Thicker the skin, the less the strain
And though it's really hurting
She ain't breaking, breaking, breaking.

'Coz she's loving him still
After all this time.

Now he knows, his weakness shows
Selfish soul, never changing
That's fine because she's loving him still
After all this time.

And to the outside eye
You see a family getting by
And it all seems perfect
And that's how she wants it.

'Coz she's loving him still
After all this time.

Trying to push the past away
Still waiting for the lights to change
She'll try, try for the sake
Of their pride, pride.

Learning to barely feel the pain
Thicker the skin the less the strain
And though it's really hurting
She ain't breaking, breaking, breaking.

'Coz she's loving him still
After all this time, after all this time
After all of the, all of the, all this time.

Bones have to grow and age it shows
Though we try and hide it
Inside, she's loving him still
After all this time.

And behind his tired eyes
She sees the boy with his arms wide
Who made her feel like an angel
Oh that's why she's loving him still.

For the rest of her life, she's loving him still
For the last of many miles, she's loving him still
After all this time.
