[Verse 1]

Threw a rock into the water

Watched it sink down to the bottom

Tryna find the lesson in it all, but

I haven't learned anything

Never looked much like my father

One year older but somehow I feel younger

I see it more now that he's gone

Or maybe I just see him in everything

[Chorus]

And how could it take so long?

Thought I had it handled but it slipped through

I didn't know it'd be this hard

So far away, and then it hits you

[Verse 2]

Called you when I heard the news

Spent the night lying next to you

What a way to start it off

So heavy from the start

[Chorus]

And how could it take so long?

Thought I had it handled but it slipped through

Didn't know it'd be this hard

So far away, and then it hits you

So far away, and then it hits you

So far away, and then it hits you

Like it was yesterday
