Warm nights like this Remind me of when I would watch you Sit on the porch And look at the sky As she beckoned for your worries To join her I can see your sunken shoulders As you sat there, Setting your alarm to wake up And cook us breakfast Before we went to school And you to work Scrolling Scrolling 6:00 am set If you went to bed now you would probably get 5 hours You scratch your head That started to pepper out years ago, Yeah, its time for a cut But little Charlie needs shoes and Terry graduates this year And don’t forget soon it will be Mary’s quince Maybe next month you mumble I can smell you light your Newport While you look back at the sky And you know To this day I could never tell If it was the stars reflecting in your eyes Or Tears That reflected in your eyes.

A Letter To My Father
Warm nights like this Remind me of when I would watch you Sit on the porch And look at the sky As she beckoned for your worries To join her I can see your sunken shoulders As you sat there, Setting your alarm to wake up And cook us breakfast Before we went to school And you to work Scrolling Scrolling 6:00 am set If you went to bed now you would probably get 5 hours You scratch your head That started to pepper out years ago, Yeah, its time for a cut But little Charlie needs shoes and Terry graduates this year And don’t forget soon it will be Mary’s quince Maybe next month you mumble I can smell you light your Newport While you look back at the sky And you know To this day I could never tell If it was the stars reflecting in your eyes Or Tears That reflected in your eyes.
