HAVING ME AROUND
Music and Lyrics: Hannah Joy

VERSE 1
You don’t like the way I smile
You don’t like the way I frown
You don’t like the way that I giggle
But you like having me around

Don’t like the way I make you feel
When you pull me close, cause you know it’s real
It’s hard to admit with that devilish grin 
That you like having me around 

VERSE 2
To be half full is to settle for less
To be half empty leaves room to progress
Choose to be empty and leave her behind
Baby, tell me what’s on your mind

Wanting to trust my tangled heart
Think I knew it was her from the start
Those deceiving eyes and that foolish sound
That you like having me around

BRIDGE
But it’s not fair, no it’s not fair
That I’m giving while you take
Oh I won’t, no I won’t
Be the girl who sits and waits

VERSE 3
Don’t like the way you look at me
When you look at her so differently
Kissing me through selfish lies
Cause you’re no good at goodbyes

Trying hard to let go
I want you, I want you, I want you to know
I won’t be another girl in this town
That likes having you around


Having Me Around

LYRICS

A pillow holds a thousand stories sleeping in my head
A pillow holds a thousand memories deep within my bed
And though I get so tired of holding a pillow full of you
My pillow keeps a lock and key of memories I refuse

So sleep, sleep, sleep little voice inside of me
And when you wake the dawn will break the message that you keep
For your heart is heavy and your head is too
So lay it down and rest a while, your thoughts are overdue

A pillow loves to hold you gently, handle you with a care
A pillow loves your dainty skin, the smell of your clean hair
And though you used to love the same things, you've found someone new
But I don't mind, you can't deny, your pillow remembers me too

So sleep, sleep, sleep little voice inside of me
And when you wake the dawn will break the message that you keep
For your heart is heavy and your head is too
So lay it down and rest a while, your thoughts are overdue

Lock those memories deep within your bed
Hide the key and rest your little head

Pillow Full Of You

I wanna believe that I'm where I need to be
But I wanna fly away to a place where I'm free, free to be me

I wanna soar above the clouds into Your hands, that's my plan
'Cause I wanna escape the hurt, the pain, the storm I'm in

I wanna be a light that shines for Your Kingdom
But inside, this darkness I feel, makes it hard to shine bright

And You have a plan for me worth so much more
So I'll keep on pressing on, see what's in store

I wanna glorify Your name in all I do, it's true
Sometimes the evil enemy makes that hard to do

I wanna be a light that shines for Your Kingdom
But inside, this darkness I feel, makes it hard to shine bright

But You've taught me to believe in the hope of You
So I'll keep on walking on this path of rescue

I wanna be a light that shines for Your Kingdom
So I'll cast aside this darkness I feel and shine, shine bright
