Dear ol Dad Lyrics
i was only fifteen when
he said to me
"oh the sun is in the sky but the moon is in your mouth"
though he tried to get up but he just fell down
and the bottles in the box just break and shatter
and you're getting older but are you getting wiser
and now you're passed out on the front porch
please don't pass this torch
i was only 18 when i fell apart
all my light inside just started to get dark
and when we cried together in a shadow
all the light came back to my head
and the bottles in the box break and shatter
and you're getting older but are you getting wiser
and now you're passed out on the front porch
please don't pass this torch
i am almost twenty-one
livin' this life with the bikes in my blood
when i call you on the phone
oh just to prove that you're not alone
and the bottles in the box break and shatter
and you're getting older but are you getting wiser
and now you're passed out on the front porch
please don't pass this torch
he said to me
"oh the sun is in the sky but the moon is in your mouth"
though he tried to get up but he just fell down
and you're getting older but are you getting wiser
and now you're passed out on the front porch
please don't pass this torch
all my light inside just started to get dark
and when we cried together in a shadow
all the light came back to my head
and you're getting older but are you getting wiser
and now you're passed out on the front porch
please don't pass this torch
livin' this life with the bikes in my blood
when i call you on the phone
oh just to prove that you're not alone
and you're getting older but are you getting wiser
and now you're passed out on the front porch
please don't pass this torch
