I still remember
Sunday afternoons inside
That burn of yours from the Fourth of July
Doctor Pepper headaches
Nintendo on the floor
Always wanting to be more like you
We didn't have
The luxury of simplicity
And these days are you missing me
Ice cream sundaes
Don't tell your mother
Don't tell your mother
Don't tell her we were up all night
She and I have shit and things get hairy
Don't tell her you can call anytime
When the nights get dark and the fights get scary
You are mine
Bedside Quixote
And stories from the farm
We three arm in arm on Christmas Day
Dinner on the foldout
Card table he has had since
Long before we were all so sad
Eastwood classics
On the old TV
The one with the black stripe
Broken on the top
That he couldn't pay to fix
But he took us to the shop
Where we marveled at the nice things
We would never buy
Even movie ticket prices got way too high
So instead we rented South Park VHS
Don't tell your mother
Don't tell her we were up all night
She and I have shit and things get hairy
Don't tell her you can call any time
When the nights get dark and the fights get scary
You are mine
