Lyrics

I'm standing in a place I've never known
Saying things I've carried on my own
Your name is cut in letters worn by time
I've been saving up these words of mine
Mama said you came to see us once
But you weren't yourself back then just young
My grandpa drew a line that day
Love in his hands and fear in the way
All these years I filled the silence in
With a story I could understand
I thought the truth was something simple
Like a man who chose not to stand
I was wrong about the leaving
I was wrong about the blame
You were reaching for tomorrow
While we never knew your name
What I thought was abandonment
Was the truth that brought me peace
You didn't walk away from your children
You were planting twin trees
I was living in the middle of my life
Trying hard to hold on to what I had
When a late-night call from a stranger's voice
Started asking questions I never asked
She said she'd been searching for a long long time
For a story she believed was true
She said Your father never walked away
He only had three months to stay
Time doesn't always tell the truth
It just tells the part it can
Some stories don't get finished
But they still show who a man was
I was wrong about the leaving
I was wrong about the blame
You were reaching for tomorrow
While we never knew your name
What I thought was abandonment
Was the truth that brought me peace
You didn't walk away from your children
You were planting twin trees
