Still Here · Nova Blair Solis · (Full song)

Still Here is a swing-era crooner song about noticing someone without urgency or expectation.

Not because anything was changing.
Not because a decision was being made.
Just because they were still here.

Inspired by classic Rat Pack–era lounge jazz, this song leans into presence, ease, and attention without pressure — the quiet moments that don’t ask to be explained.

Lyrics:



Same chair by the window
Same late afternoon
Nothing ringing, nothing breaking
Nothing coming soon

Coffee doing what it does
Clock just killing time
Then I looked across the room
And you crossed my mind



I noticed you today
Not because things changed
Not because the moment knew my name

I noticed you today
No reason, no cue
I noticed you today
’Cause you were still here, too



You said something half important
Didn’t make it stick
Smiled like you weren’t trying
To turn it into something big

No plans leaning on us
No future drawing near
Just the quiet doing what it does
And you still here



I noticed you today
Not to mark the time
Not to see what this could be

I noticed you today
Just standing by
Like it’s something that comes easy

No fireworks, no sign
No story breaking through
I noticed you today
’Cause you were still here, too



You know…
everybody’s waiting for something to happen.
I guess I just noticed
what already did.



I noticed you today
Nothing left to prove
Didn’t ask for more than now
Didn’t need to move

If tomorrow changes shape
Well, we’ll get there when we do
I noticed you today
’Cause you were still here, too

Still here...

Still here…
That’s plenty.
