I know that you can't give any-more than you did Mom & Dad
I know that you worked countless
Hours pouring out your blood, sweat, & tears
I know Mom & Dad, I know the uncounted times
The countless moments, the fragile mistakes that happened
I know, I know, I know that every ounce of love
Is made by gathering all the pieces of, of each of our hearts
Every beat, every breathe, every step, every movement
Every, every, tear, every, everything
I know, I know, know, how feelings can spill
Like paint in different paths spill in directions
That seemed Colour-less, that I know, that, that I know
Is something to keep us tied together
None drifting under the weather, none of us getting untied
From our bonds as family as one
I know that you can't give any-more than you did Mom & Dad
I know that you worked countless hours
Pouring out your blood, sweat, & tears
I know Mom & Dad, I know the uncounted times
The countless moments, the fragile mistakes that happened
I know, I know, I know that every ounce of love is made by gathering all the pieces of, of each of our hearts
I know, I know all the stiches, all the sewing
Of the hours made into a room full of dust
Dancing like dandelions in the wind
Brushing the new coats of paint to another beginning
Mom & Dad keep on listening to every word that I say
Every breathe that you feel coming your way
Just listen to what I have to say
Which is I love; you & I thank you for everything
Even if it barely cost nothing more
Except the money that I gave you now
(Well, you know what I mean & have talked about for a while)
Every beat, every breathe, every step
Every movement, every, every, tear, every, everything
I know, I know, know, how feelings can spill
Like paint in different paths spill in directions
That seemed Colour-less, that I know, that, that I know
Is something to keep us tied together
None drifting under the weather, none of us getting untied
From our bonds as family as one the warm stains of love
The warm stains of tears, the warm stains of the coal
To light the fiery bond again, hopefully not to lose it this time
To keep it burning warmer than the 1st, than the 1st of anything
That we do together as one Mom & Dad hope you don't forget
Hope you don't forget, forget even if it sometimes was Colour-less
I know that you worked countless
Hours pouring out your blood, sweat, & tears
I know Mom & Dad, I know the uncounted times
The countless moments, the fragile mistakes that happened
I know, I know, I know that every ounce of love
Is made by gathering all the pieces of, of each of our hearts
Every beat, every breathe, every step, every movement
Every, every, tear, every, everything
I know, I know, know, how feelings can spill
Like paint in different paths spill in directions
That seemed Colour-less, that I know, that, that I know
Is something to keep us tied together
None drifting under the weather, none of us getting untied
From our bonds as family as one
I know that you can't give any-more than you did Mom & Dad
I know that you worked countless hours
Pouring out your blood, sweat, & tears
I know Mom & Dad, I know the uncounted times
The countless moments, the fragile mistakes that happened
I know, I know, I know that every ounce of love is made by gathering all the pieces of, of each of our hearts
