He was sitting on the back porch singing, "You're My Only Sunshine"
|
Swinging to songs only he heard in his head
|
Now he's cutting paper swords from boxes to hang inside his room
|
And watch 'em spin into the wind above his bed
|
|
Singing "Take me down this road I'm on
|
It's late and I don't wanna go alone.
|
Take me down this road
|
I won't be scared, 'cause we can't be scared."
|
|
And I'm searching for a sign that you're still here
|
And I'm alright but now I'm down here on the ground
|
I think I'll pray
|
'Cause Tallahassee's fine but, Dad, I miss you all the time
|
And I know you're going, but not too long
|
And I hope you fucking love your birthday song
|
|
If you'll take me down this road I'm on
|
It's late, and I don't wanna go alone
|
If you'll take me down this road
|
I won't be scared, 'cause we can't be scared
|
|
It's 4:09, west over by a hill
|
There is some clover and a bridge where my father lets me play
|
And I was taking it for granted
|
You were there to hold my hand and say,
|
"Don't worry, son, 'cause this will be okay."
|
|
If you'll take me down this road I'm on
|
It's late, and I don't wanna go alone
|
If you'll take me down this road
|
I won't be scared, 'cause we can't be scared
|
Ohhh
|
Singin' take me down this road I'm on
|
It's late, and I don't wanna go alone
|
If you'll take me down this road
|
I won't be scared, 'cause we can't be scared
|
