Do you remember that warm fall day?
We brought Grandma's ashes up to Lake Superior
Down the shore, we called out her glorious name
Oh, I remember the blue of that sky
The water cool around our legs, the way it never ended
Couldn't help ourselves, we had to cry
But I do wish I'd told you
You're the bravest one of us all
So much joy we can cling to
Even if the missing don't stop
So comes summer, and with it this rush
For breezes gentle on our cheeks and lips so easy smiling
We'll devote ourselves, let this carry us
But I still wish I'd told you
You're the bravest one of us all
So much joy we must cling to
Even when the missing don't stop
We'll find ways to keep in the sun
Roll out of bed into an open palm
Shielded from this world's weary spell
Hush now, you are safely held
Hush now, you are safely held
