I found a letter in my dresser from a couple years back
It was written from my dad, he nearly broke his back
He spent his life working a job he hated
It could have left him bitter but he never got jaded
I tried to hold him close but he pulled away
I'd give anything to see him once again today
He died too young, it nearly broke my heart
I'd give anything to take it right back to the start Chorus
I had a perfect dream of your beautiful face
I woke too soon and you were lost in space
I spent half the day crying at a sky so blue
And I'd give anything to be closer to you
Yeah, I'd give anything to be closer to you Well, I never saw a hearse pulling a U-Haul trailer
Possessions don't mean nothin' to a long lost sailor
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
If you don't keep searchin' then you're sure gonna rust Chorus I'm in the dark
So close, so far I dropped a letter to my lover in the mail today
I'll be damned if I'm gonna make the same mistakes
Will you join me on a journey for the rocky road
I promise you I'll help you bear the heavy load Chorus
