The first half reminds me of being a young teenager. My parents went from happily married, to my mother abusing drugs and leaving.
Mama come here, approach, appear.
We lived in a house that no longer felt like home. My dad stayed and took care of us, but he worked a lot and I was alone a lot to care for my younger brother like a mother.
The second half is my now.
My mother is now alone in a nursing home, and although it's her own fault, I know she's tired of being alone.
My dad now has congestive heart failure, and he's trying to still fight when he probably feels like flying.
But if they love me they won't let go.....Cause I'm still a little Unsteady.
I cry every time I hear this song.
I'd like to ask the writer of this song what he truly wrote it about.
But this is my take on it.
This song hits home for me.
