Story Behind The Song
Sometimes we try not to admit that we feel sad when we lose someone. This song was actually written about feelings I had as a result of losing my sister to cancer last year, but the lyrics would apply to someone who lost in a love affair as well.
Song Description
A love song.. kind of a message to the person who is missed that "no, I'm not fine without you" by "keep it real" means being honest about feelings.

Lyrics
I know you never liked the sad songs
Sorry, I can't help the way I feel
I know you never liked the sad songs
All I'm trying to do is keep it real
You know that I always loved you
You know that I always will
You know that I always loved you
You know that I love you still
It's gonna be a year since you left us
Time keeps goin' 'round like a wheel
All the things I should have done
Keep spinnin' in my mind
And all I'
m trying to do is keep it real
You know that I always loved you
You know that I always will
You know that I always loved you
You know that I love you still
Keep it real
I don't want to pretend
Keep it real
And I remember what you meant
To me
You will always be
The only one
Who knew me as I really am
And the truth
I miss you
In my life, you see...
So let's keep it real
Keep it real
