On a bus to Fall River from Back Bay Station
Heading south to Burgundy to see my uncle
The story has two others here
(why) It's been so long I'm not sure
Dad looked like a movie star
But he'll never look that way
Even then the parental sin
Pervaded every part of him
For he saw things he will not soon forget
Again
Again
Again
Again
Cousin Nelly almost didn't make it
In and out for months
I wish I'd known more
But I was only four
Memories I never knew
I saw locked in frames
Walls and halls that went on for ages
Even then the parental sin
Pervaded every part of him
For he saw things he will not soon forget
Again

Gather 'round the Christmas tree
The kids in 1970
Take a snapshot now for it will never be this good

Again (Take the time to know it well)
Again (See the things we could tell)
