The song was written by Damien Rice, reflecting on the complexities and pains of love and loss. It heavily emphasizes the emotions and questions that arise after the end of a relationship.
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 bit of your face, I haven't kissed You step a little closer each day, that i can't say 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 to me, 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, and I don't wanna scare her It's not hard to fall, and I don't wanna lose It's not hard to grow, when you know that you just don't know
