lyrics

Loss of a Son, Love of a Father

looking down at the crumpled note in his hand
covered in words spelling out what he cant understand
said I’m sorry dad I hope you can forgive what I’ve done
and that you won't quit calling me your son
I never thought that I’d shoot down a man
I never thought anyone would die by my hand

so I’ve packed my bags on my horse
and I’ve left you my gun
said I'm not gonna kill anymore
I swear that im done

his eyes filled with tears as he tried not to cry
and cried out into the night why son, oh why
your mom and I did our best to raise you right
but now she stays up crying into the night

but the pain that you caused
it doesn't compare
to the love that you lost
it doesn't seem fair

so we’ll wait for you our only son
because we love you no matter what we’ve done
you’ll always be with us in our hearts
the one place we’ll never be truly apart
