Ceiling Gazing
Laying in my bed, ceiling gazing Wide awake with jet-lag from Australia Got a stack of mail, and a wedding invitation From a new, young relative I never even knew
Got me thinking about my grandpa for some reason Met him half a dozen times in a nursing home The last time I saw him, he was in a box And they were lowering him into the ground
St. Mary's Church stood so high It was the first and the last time I saw my dad cry The ground had a thin coat of snow, And we wondered off in the cold.
It's 3: 47 AM June 13th It's my sister's birthday today, I think Gonna give her a call, and see how she's doing She had a rough divorce, I hope she's improved
I wanna reach out, and give her my love Put a smile on her face, like when we were young Listening to records from the library Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Hermit of Mink Hollow and Dreamboat Annie
She lives with her daughters, all alone Across the street from a cornfield in Ohio One's four, one's seven, and I love them so, I wanna live a long time, and see them grow.
Outside my window tonight Sausalito's twinkling lights My love's beside me, deep asleep Dog is laying between my feet
Outside my window tonight A cargo ship's cruising by And I'm so happy to be alive To have these people in my life
Laying in my bed, ceiling gazing Can't make my mind stop from racing It's not good or bad, it's just how god made me To lay awake at night, ceiling gazing.
