lyrics

Flying.
A boat so fast it felt like flying.
On the lake before first light,
Just hoping for a bite,
Wanting to make you proud of me.

Riding.
In your Bronco we’d go riding.
I rode across the South with you,
The world was just we two,
Such warm and fading memories.

I wish you were back here with me.
I guess that’s nothing new.
But I look on with envy,
At folks that still have theirs,
And it makes me think of you.

Worry.
You always calmed me when I’d worry.
And I never had to dread,
That you might kick me in the head,
To make yourself feel manly.

Sorry.
I wish I’d told you I was sorry.
Because I think it ev’ry day,
And wish I’d found a way,
To say it when you were around me.

I wish that I’d lived with you -
I was too weak to say.
How I might have turned out
With good instead of evil.
But I’m still here today.

I wish you were back here with me.
I guess that’s nothing new.
But I look on with envy,
At folks that still have theirs,
And it makes me think of you.
