Joe Zumpano - Guitar, Vocals

lyrics

Papa brought me home on a Sunday afternoon
Plucked away my pitted leaves then put me in the sun to bloom
I can hear him the kitchen shaking glasses, scrubbing spoons
Singing his sad songs about how he misses you

Takes me back inside before the evening gets too cold
Puts waters on my roots and hopes together we grow old
I'll try to keep from wilting, try to keep my branches green
Wonder who needs the more, him or me?

But,
I hope he knows I'm proud and that when my flowers show
He saved me from what led beyond
Gave me the chance to grow
I hope he knows that when he plays I sit and watch him sing
I'm watching him grow too
Despite the bitterness it brings

On rain soaked days, droplets dance upon the sill
Circle indents in the dust
Just like the fervor of our will
Those darker days WILL come
And then them bitter clouds will clear
Stretch ever towards the light knowing we were always here
