  • I think about you often
  • I think this is the year
  • that you'll be gone from me
  • about as long as you were here
  • I know you had some problems
  • Now I've got some too
  • And every year I feel a little more like you
  • And I hear people talkin'
  • About their family scars
  • And how it's hard to function
  • With their lives the way they are
  • 'cause memories are painful
  • And time won't always heal
  • But I believe you taught me how to cry and how to feel
  • And I guess we never talked enough
  • Sometimes you got mad, sometimes you drank too much
  • We weren't always perfect with our family stuff
  • But the thing that kept us goin was a bone deep,
  • family, real big love
  • I turn on my receiver
  • And watch what's there to see
  • But Ward and June and Beaver
  • Were only on TV
  • Out here in the real world
  • It just never gets that good
  • Damn I know you tried so hard and gave us all you could
  •  
  • And I guess we never talked enough
  • Sometimes you got mad, sometimes you drank too much
  • We weren't always perfect with our family stuff
  • But the thing that kept us goin was a bone deep,
  • family, real big love
  •  
  • I don't know what happens
  • with parents and their kids
  • Maybe Eve and Adam
  • were both insensitive
  • And passed it on to Abel
  • And passed it on to Cain
  • And passed it on and passed it on
  • I guess I can't complain
  •  
  • Oh I guess we never talked enough
  • Sometimes you got mad, sometimes you drank too much
  • We weren't always perfect with our family stuff
  • But the thing that kept us goin was a bone deep,
  • family, real big love
