There in a parking space
On the side of a trailer on its own
In letters of five foot high
So simple against this Oregon sky
It says 'Nathaniel, we'll always love you'
'Nathaniel, we'll always love you'
I turn on the TV news
Another disaster for the lonely multitude
The lingering rolling feed
Candles and toys and a sea of flowers
All from strangers
I think of 'Nathaniel, we'll always love you'
'Nathaniel, we'll always love you'
At first you deny it
And then you get angry that they've gone
You try making a bargain
And then you accept it and you go on
I think of 'Nathaniel, we'll always love you'
'Nathaniel, we'll always love you'
You won't be the first
You won't be the first to lose control
Oh, but it's hard
It's so hard to fill the hole
Oh, Nathaniel, we'll always love you
Nathaniel, we'll always love you
