Rest Your Head

I've been singing hymns since grandpa died

I'm not sure if they're the ones he even liked

But it brings me peace despite the fact

It's been a bit since God & I've crossed paths

I gambled with the passing of time

Never asked him about the songs he liked

We could of strummed a chord or two

Now I just strum to the thought of you

I ran away from my roots

But after your funeral

My heart has turned

And I've learned that I was wrong

There's a card on my table

In loving memory it's titled

Lay your head and find rest

We'll take it from here on

If there's one thing I know it's you'll be missed

And I'm saying we won't forget

But I have a fear if I'm quite honest

The fact that life goes on is creeping in

I'll remember them grease stained hands

You showed us how to be a stand up man

I didn't process this would happen

I could of lingered all day by your casket

I ran away from my roots

But after your funeral

My heart has turned

And I've learned that I was wrong

There's a card on my table

In loving memory it's titled

Lay your head and find rest

We'll take it from here on

If one person deserves a rest it's you

We won't let your face fade I promise you

If one person deserves a rest it's you

We won't let your face fade
