lyrics

if you were around on this sunday night
we’d probably watch tv
we’d probably fight
i know if you were here, we’d eat some fruit
we’d make lots of dick jokes
we’d talk about butts that were cute

but you don’t live here, not like you did
im clinging to you from when i was a kid
not a breeze in my hair, or dust in the light
i wish you were here and still breathing tonight

on this tuesday morning, if you were around
you’d leave comments on Facebook
tell me i make you proud
i know if you were here, you’d call mavreen
you’d ask how the kids are
laugh at how moms live on caffeine

but you don’t live here, not like you did
im clinging to you from when i was a kid
not a photo on the wall, or in things that i write
i wish you were here and still breathing tonight

if you were around on this thursday night
you’d probably come see me
singing tonight
you’d probably wear your magenta pants suit
its too hot for velour
but you’d still look cute

but you don’t live here, not like you did
i’m clinging to you from when i was a kid
not ash in an urn, or thoughts of your plight
i wish you were here and still breathing tonight
