Your family is here for the week
They stay in the guest room, their shoes are all lined on the stairs
A few of them
You haven't talked to in years
I guess we gotta try
If that's the last thing we do
Just to be by your side
Wondering when you will go
A handful of cards in the mail
Bills and condolences, sorry's and thinking of you's
The phone rings
Your voice fills up the room
I guess we gotta try
If that's the last thing we do
Just to be by your side
Wondering when you will go
Your family was here for the week
They're packing their suitcases, took all their sheets off the bed
This state of mind
Feels better instead
I guess we gotta try
If it's the last thing we do
Just to be by your side
Wondering when you will go
