Father, daughter and holy ghosts
We don't mean to hurt who we love the most
And we loved the best we could

But this punishment doesn't fit the crime
How I wish we had just a bit more time
to say those things we should

Oh how it breaks my stupid little heart
The way you come and go
How can I make my stupid little heart
Learn a new way home

I promise to keep the better days
Swimming cross the creek and your sweet pancakes
And those songs you played by heart

Some days a song lights up your eyes
It's like we see each other from time to time
So, I'll sing with all my heart

Oh when it breaks my stupid little heart
The way you come and go
I'll try to make my stupid little heart
Learn a new way home

Oh how it breaks my stupid little heart
The way we come and go
I've got to make my stupid little heart
Learn a new way home
And let music bring us home
