lyrics

I’m sitting in the corner of the doctor's office waiting room
With my grandma and an apple that I brought from home
Taking notice of the contrast between the nervous faces of nervous patients
And the stark realism of the woman answering the phones
Grandma puts on her jacket
She says it’s always cold when you get old
I’ve always considered her and I to be so different
But time is teaching me that it’s sameness
That is so much more difficult to identify
She says don’t be like me
Taking life so seriously
I had a family when I was still
Just a baby

At that moment grandpa walks out of the xray room
Buttons up his top button
Takes us all out to lunch
Go ahead get that cherry coke
You got a birthday coming up?
The big 21
Doesn’t seem like so long ago
It was you and your brother riding in the Cadillac
Fighting over the armrest in the back
Talking about rocket ship lawn chairs
Coffee candies and track
Way back when grandpa was the wisest man in the world
Nothing has changed at all

You know I never thought to thank you
For all those rides home
I never got to thank you for all that french toast

Kerry, we can rise above it all
Because you and me
We are family
So hopelessly undeniably
Intertwined like rushing mountain streams
