Father, Grandfather, won't you tell me where I'm from Since I was a young boy I've been dancing in the sun Looking up at statues and thinking I was one Wide eyed and adventurous, always on the run I ran out with the people that hide out after dark But I listened to the woman that holds me in her heart and I know I've seen the answers to questions I don't have I think about the good book, but I've only read the back Most of my friends from high school, I can't remember when we've spoke But I remember going to the fires, watching our worries go up in smoke Then we rode across the country, met some folks who've been to war That look upon their faces was like nothing I've seen before We spent 4 years finding answers to questions we don't have It makes me think about the good book, but I've only read the back I started swapping dirty handshakes with the people at the door She drug me over the rainbow when I was living on the second floor Brett is on the run Herbie's got a gun The Elf is down the hall and Gloria's on call Grace, oh ya, she's gone But we thought she was the one Brenna lost her mind in 1969 Michael's in the garden He's growing himself a name Hende's counting beans and Windor's in my dreams ya know I'm tryin to dream We're all growing up We're all growing up But oh we're tripping up Cuz no one said that life Would ask of us so much But oh we've got so much love to give to the world Brett is on the run Herbie's got a gun The Elf is down the hall and Gloria's on call Grace, oh ya, she's gone But we thought she was the one Brenna lost her mind in 1969 Michael's in the garden He's growing himself a name Mo is away from home He'll be home when he's grown We're all just trying to grow We're all growing up We're all growing up But oh we're tripping up Cuz no one said that life Would ask of us so much But oh we've got so much love to give to the world
