lyrics

we called her may
but i only met her once on vacation
inflatable dolls at the beach is all i remember

her hair so curly and wrinkles so fine eyes so kind
she raised dad for her life bought him helado waiting in line

she left and he felt she was well
an angel in the sky
that's what he said at the funeral
there was no need for him to cry

but i look back and think time is moving to quickly
what if mine leave me soon too
i'm scared time is moving too quickly

ill have pictures and memories
but i don't believe in ghosts
i'm scared they'll be gone before they know i owe them the most

i'm not scared of the ground
i'm scared of saying good bye
i'm not scared of the ground
i'm scared of saying good bye

from soft serve, released June 16, 2017
to my great grandmother who i met once and is now passed, my father who i dont always understand but love dearly, and my grandparents who will never know how great of an impact they have made on my life
