Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Got that call from Grandma
Her voice shaking like the floor
Said you’d finally gotten tired
Said you weren’t here anymore
Coffee on the counter
Went cold in my hand
All I heard was one long echo
Didn’t even understand
[Chorus]
I missed your goodbye
Chasing a new life
Chasing a new girl
Said I’d be back in no time
But time took you out of my world
Too busy growing up to see you fading
Blink and the whole house changed
I missed your goodbye
And I’m the one who changed
[Verse 2]
Flashed back to the driveway
You waving from that old porch chair
Said
“Call me when you get there”
I just laughed
Said
“Yeah
I swear”
All those Sunday dinners
All the stories I let slide
You were turning into memory
While I scrolled right past your eyes
[Chorus]
I missed your goodbye
Chasing a new life
Chasing a new girl
Said I’d be back in no time
But time took you out of my world
Too busy growing up to see you fading
Blink and the whole house changed
I missed your goodbye
And I’m the one who changed
[Bridge]
Did they fold your favorite jacket
Lay your cap across your chest
Was your song still on the radio
When they laid you down to rest
I wasn’t there to stand beside you
Wasn’t there to hold that door
Just a name on a black suit program
That I never even wore (I’m sorry)
[Chorus]
I missed your goodbye
Chasing a new life
Chasing a new girl
Said I’d be back in no time
But time took you out of my world
Too busy growing up to see you fading
Blink and the whole house changed
I missed your goodbye
Now every day feels strange
[Outro]
Got that call from Grandma
Phone still heavy in my hand
Saying all the words I owe you
Out loud to an empty land

Style
Sparse indie ballad, male vocals, close-mic intimacy. Fingerpicked acoustic and soft piano sharing the lead, light ambient pads under the chorus. Verse starts almost whispered; chorus opens with airy harmonies and a warm, round bass. Subtle swells into a vulnerable bridge, then pull the band down to nearly solo guitar for the final chorus line.

Prompt
I got that call from grandma she says your granfa is gone.
Flashed back memory, I forgot to say goodbye, busy with a new girl, missing you, told you I’ll be back, couldn’t even come to your funeral.
