| [00:50.95] | My father had dementia |
| [00:52.89] | He lied in bed for months |
| [00:55.26] | Once in a while he'd call me |
| [00:57.64] | And ask me to fly down |
| [00:59.94] | I told him that I'd love to |
| [01:02.34] | But I had things to do |
| [01:04.53] | And so he died without his son |
| [01:09.53] | I heard about it drunk after a show |
| [01:14.51] | My mother battled cancer |
| [01:16.70] | For over seven years |
| [01:19.07] | I nursed her and I held her |
| [01:21.32] | When time was running out |
| [01:23.89] | The night before she left me |
| [01:25.95] | I drank scotch all night |
| [01:28.14] | And thanked her for everything she'd done |
| [01:33.46] | Raising me alone wasn't much fun |
| [01:38.15] | Dad I can forgive you' but I'll never forget' |
| [01:42.59] | Months I wouldn't see you and when I did |
| [01:46.34] | You'd be out with your friends all night |
| [01:49.77] | Alone and only nine |
| [01:52.10] | I watched the outer limits |
| [01:54.48] | And scared out of my mind |
| [01:56.98] | I wonder if you felt the same |
| [01:59.23] | The days before you died |
| [02:01.73] | I wonder if you even knew |
| [02:03.85] | Why I wouldn't come around |
| [02:06.29] | I bet if you had been there' |
| [02:08.66] | There wouldn't be this song |
| [02:10.98] | |
| [02:20.14] | 2006 goodbye parents |
| [02:26.60] | For once I am sincere |
| [02:29.60] | 2006 my orphan year |
