I thought I had it figured out,
til I figured out I'll never have a clue
Sure we saw this coming,
but it still feels like the coming came to soon
Like figure eights on frozen lakes,
our paths will always cross and never end
Today we're missing you, old friend
Pumpkin guts and pigeon coops
and old skunk railroads spinnin through my head
With spaghetti shirts and tractor rides
and all of the I love you's left unsaid
Gambling with matchsticks by the statue of St. Francis
feedin crumbs to chickens round the bend
Today we're missing you, old friend
If I knew those were our last words,
I would've wrote em down,
learned to fly an airplane, and go write em in the clouds
Now I can't even remember,
but I still can hear the sound
Stay cool, I'll see ya round
I'll see ya round
Grandpa built a forest,
a patch of Eucalyptus in a grid
Where we build forts with Nate and Lauren and Simone
and I still feel like a kid
I couldn't fit my arms around you,
but I loved to be around you
Now you're up there with baby Jesus shootin squirrels
and smiling down at the world
If I knew those were our last words,
I would've wrote em down,
learned to fly an airplane, and go write em in the clouds
Now I can't even remember,
but I still can hear the sound.
Stay cool, I'll see ya round
I'll see ya round
