lyrics

Doesn't it mean anything
I'm standing here at your door
tears streaming down my face
cuz I can't fight it anymore

told you I needed time
maybe you thought that was a line
but time helped me see
how good you are for me

Chorus:
And if you don't already know
you are rock n roll
you fill my life with song
right here's where I belong
don't tell me you've moved on


Now I've got everything
everything money can buy
and it don't mean anything
without you by my side

I told you I don't need you
baby it turns out I do
I need you to say
it's gonna be okay

Chorus
And if you don't already know
you are rock n roll
you fill my life with song
right here's where I belong
don't tell me you've moved on


bridge: if I let myself say it I'd say I'm afraid to fall
don't want to lose you I'm ready to risk it all

Chorus
And if you don't already know
you are rock n roll
you fill my life with song
right here's where I belong
don't tell me you've moved on
