You might think there’s some big reason
|
Why I took this time to write
|
The cards and letters there's been too few of those
|
But I just stopped to realize
|
How long that I've been gone
|
But there’s a few small things I need to know.
|
|
Dear Daddy do the whippoorwill still echo through the night?
|
Does the sound of silence squeeze the morning light?
|
And have you caught the big one in the pond just down the road?
|
I miss you so.
|
|
Well the years keep slipping by
|
Like the miles out on the road
|
But I don't guess I'll change my way of life
|
There's no harm in holding memories
|
So please tell me if you can
|
I need to bring them old times inside.
|
|
Dear Mama can you still find the dipper in the stars?
|
And do the roads still go for hours without cars?
|
And does the frost still shine cold mornings on the grass outside the door?
|
Just like before
|
Tell me more.
|
|
I’ll be back to see you sometime soon
|
Can you still reach out and almost touch the moon?
|
Do the old psalms still ring out through the hills for days and days?
|
|
Love Always
