He was sitting on the back porch singing, "You're My Only Sunshine" Swinging to songs only he heard in his head Now he's cutting paper swords from boxes to hang inside his room And watch 'em spin into the wind above his bed Singing "Take me down this road I'm on It's late and I don't wanna go alone. Take me down this road I won't be scared, 'cause we can't be scared." And I'm searching for a sign that you're still here And I'm alright but now I'm down here on the ground I think I'll pray 'Cause Tallaha**ee's fine but, Dad, I miss you all the time And I know you're going, but not too long And I hope you f**ing love your birthday song If you'll take me down this road I'm on
It's late, and I don't wanna go alone If you'll take me down this road I won't be scared, 'cause we can't be scared It's 4:09, west over by a hill There is some clover and a bridge where my father lets me play And I was taking it for granted You were there to hold my hand and say, "Don't worry, son, 'cause this will be okay." If you'll take me down this road I'm on It's late, and I don't wanna go alone If you'll take me down this road I won't be scared, 'cause we can't be scared Ohhh Singin' take me down this road I'm on It's late, and I don't wanna go alone If you'll take me down this road I won't be scared, 'cause we can't be scared
