| I got your address from the phone book at the library | |
| Wandered in, looked you up and you were there | |
| Weird that you've been living, maybe, 2 miles away for the best part of 20 years | |
| You must be, what, in your early forties now | |
| If I remember, | |
| You were born in | |
| June or was it | |
| May? Eisenhower was the president although it may have been | |
| JFK Years of silence | |
| Not enough who could blame us giving up? | |
| Above the quiet there's a buzz | |
| That's me trying | |
| You still working in that store on ventura? | |
| You still going with--no, that's not fair | |
| I know I haven't been the very best of dads | |
| I'll hold my hand up there | |
| The reason that | |
| I'm writing is that i'd like for us to meet | |
| Get a little daughter dad action going soon | |
| We can put things behind us | |
| Eat some pizza, drink some beer | |
| You still see your sister | |
| Lemli? Bring her, too | |
| Years of silence, not enough | |
| Who could blame us giving up? | |
| Above the quiet there's a buzz | |
| That's me trying | |
| But I don't want to talk about any of that bad stuff | |
| Why I missed out on your wedding and your high school graduation | |
| I'd like to explain, but | |
| I can't So let's keep things neutral | |
| Stick to topics that won't bug us | |
| How 'bout this? | |
| Let's choose a book and we'll read it before we meet | |
| Then we can sit down at a restaurant | |
| Have a look at the menu and talk about it while we eat | |
| See, if we never had a problem | |
| Then that's what life would be like | |
| Easy Uncomplicated | |
| Cool So let's just pretend that the past didn't happen | |
| I don't really like thriller as well. | |
| I don't want to know if | |
| I've got grandchildren no need to tell me where | |
| I went wrong | |
| I don't want to know what happened in your thirties | |
| You wanna try 'cold mountain'? | |
| Or is that too long?? | |
| Years of silence, not enough | |
| Who could blame us giving up? | |
| Above the quiet there's a buzz | |
| That's me trying | |
