Intro:
/
/
/
there's still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
/
there's still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
/
it's still a little hard to say
/
what's going on
/
there's still a little bit of your ghost your witness
/
there's still a little piece of your face i haven't kissed
/
you step a little closer each day
/
so i can't see what's going on
/
stones taught me to fly
/
love taught me to lie
/
life taught me to die
/
so it's not hard to fall
/
when you float like a cannonball
/
/
there's still a little bit of your song in my ear
/
there's still a little bit of your words i long to hear
/
you step a little closer each day
/
so close that i can't see what's going on
/
stones taught me to fly
/
love taught me to lie
/
life taught me to die
/
so it's not hard to fall
/
when you float like a cannon
/
stones taught me to fly
/
love taught me to cry
so come on courage
/
teach me to be shy
/
'cause it's not hard to fall
/
when you float like a cannonball
/
