My father had dementia |
[00:52.76] |
He lied in bed for months |
[00:54.96] |
Once in a while he'd call me |
[00:57.33] |
And ask me to fly down |
[00:59.94] |
I told him that I'd love to |
[01:02.25] |
But I had things to do |
[01:04.38] |
And so he died without his son |
[01:08.45] |
I heard about it drunk after a show |
[01:13.05] |
|
[01:13.95] |
My mother battled cancer |
[01:16.37] |
For over seven years |
[01:18.49] |
I nursed her and I held her |
[01:20.92] |
When time was running out |
[01:23.23] |
The night before she left me |
[01:25.69] |
I drank scotch all night |
[01:27.94] |
And thanked her for everything she'd done |
[01:32.73] |
Raising me alone wasn't much fun |
[01:36.66] |
|
[01:37.51] |
Dad I can forgive you, but I'll never forget, |
[01:42.10] |
Months I wouldn't see you and when I did |
[01:46.66] |
You'd be out with your friends all night |
[01:49.40] |
Alone and only nine |
[01:51.63] |
I watched the outer limits |
[01:54.13] |
And scared out of my mind |
[01:56.34] |
I wonder if you felt the same |
[01:58.88] |
The days before you died |
[02:00.95] |
I wonder if you even knew |
[02:03.68] |
Why I wouldn't come around |
[02:05.78] |
I bet if you had been there, |
[02:08.35] |
There wouldn't be this song |
[02:10.97] |
|
[02:18.51] |
2006 goodbye parents |
[02:26.28] |
For once I am sincere |
[02:28.54] |
2006 my orphan year |
[02:33.71] |
