Lyrics
Momma packed her suitcase, left one winter morn' Said the burden grew too heavy, and her mind was worn She kissed me soft on the forehead, said she needs to be free Leaving me with echoes of how life used to be [Verse 1] As a kid just dreamin', had to grow up fast Picking up the pieces of a family that's passed I searched for a ride, on the web pages vast Craigslist had plenty, but they didn't last Every car I saw, had a tale or a dent Sketchy deals in the making, on safety they bent Turned keys of strangers, felt the doubt in my chest Journeys waiting to start, in a ride that's blessed Papa liked his whiskey, fire in his still Livin' on the memories of how it made him feel I packed up my sorrows, left them in the past Headed out to Utah, plant my roots at last [Chorus] Spent my days with shadows, the nights with the drink Now I'm chasin' horizons where the red rocks think [Chorus] So Papa drank to drown the silence, left when Ma departed Blamed himself in the darkness, broken, heavy-hearted In every sip, a story, where he's not the one at fault But deep down in the whiskey, he locked away the hurtin' vault [Verse 3] Papa's hands were gentle, never raised in harm Quiet strength in his eyes, a subdued and silent charm Ma was his compass; now he sails the storms within Haunted by the love lost, beneath his weathered skin Yet, in his heart, he's solid, a protector to the core No matter his own pain, he gave us love and more Every face on the street, could it be her, I seek? A glimmer of Ma, in a world so bleak Papa gave up the search, said it was God's own test And every unanswered prayer just tightens the chest [Verse 4] So I scan the crowds, wonder if she's out there Alive in the ether, or lost to despair Gave the listings one more peek, scrolled through with a sigh An old truck on Craigslist, thought I'd give it one more try Met up at the corner, of Main and Seventeenth The truck had a presence, with a faded tint of sheen When she stepped from the shadow, it was clear who it had been Lost and found in a moment, it was Ma, lookin' thin [Outro] Under the golden sunset, we find our way Ma, Pa, and I, together again like before, to stay The road was long, the journey twisted and steep But we're a family once more, the promise we'll keep Pa put down the bottle, the whiskey's old spell gone In the heart of this old truck, our new life's dawn
