about

For grandpa Mel and Judi.

lyrics

Cherry tobacco rolls through the air
I'm laid out on the sidewalk there
knowing you're not around
TV on Sundays in the rainy gloom
nothing was better than that old dark room
in a trailer, I'm sittin, with you

CHORUS
Sometimes all you know is a hand on yours
Sometimes all that matters is what came before
the future ain't got nothing on now
the future aint got nothing on us now

Lipstick butts in your old ashtray
running around on old rust belt days
and I knew it couldn't stay like this
Running red lights out in the rain
it was salt and slush and snow for days
but you, you kept me warm

CHORUS

So I'm dippin my feet in the water again
missing those days when I called you friend
and sometimes so much more
Our love it just went up in smoke
like the cheap old Basics I used to smoke
when I was too broke to be cool

CHORUS
