So many years seems like yesterday   Brothers growing up growing old and moving away   To a phone call away   And Grandmother's an angel and there's no disguise   And I'm down here trying to hide from her eyes   And run from my lies   Like a drunk midway between bars      So pour me a shot just one for the road   I'm gonna go   I'm gonna go and tell all the kids there's no Santa Claus   That Mom she's pretending and Daddy he's quiet because   He's lost a place to love and be loved   A way to love and be loved   By you      'Cause here things are backwards and love rarely grows   But the children grow up   It's not just Heaven that knows   We know   Salvation forgiveness and the world in between   I forgive you all and you me   But somehow we still feel you know how I feel   You know me   Yeah you know me      So pour me a shot just one for the road   I'm gonna go   I'm gonna go inside your painted faces   Your bars with bars   Your tattood passions and your pierced hearts   And find a place to love and be loved   A way to love and be loved   By you      So pour me a shot just one for the road   I'm gonna go   I'm gonna go and tell all the kids about Santa Claus   That Mom she's for real and Daddy's just quiet because   He's found a place to love and be loved   A way to love and be loved   One of the million ways to love and be loved   By you
