Granddad's truck is rotting in the yard, weeds all around
The tires have sunken deep into the mud
And if it weren't so broken-down, I'd take it into to town
But it's rusted out the same color as blood
His old flag's a hanging on my wall there in the sun
I count the stars there's only forty-eight
The anchor I had tattooed in his name now is gone
As all my memories of him start to fade
Though I've been told many times that he was proud
I wish that I could hear it said out loud
Tonight I'm missing you just like I miss the sun
That goes away whenever evening comes
I got a nice place in the woods with a few acres of land
The same place where my mother used to come
I framed the photo of us, when you first held my hand
After driving up the 5 from dusk till dawn
And I tell my friends that we would sail when I was just a girl
Taught me to tie a knot that wouldn't budge
Sometimes when the wind picks up and gets into my curls
I think of all the ways you showed me love
Though I've been told many times that he was proud
I wish that I could hear it said out loud
Tonight I'm missing you just like I miss the sun
That goes away whenever evening comes
