To Brett

(Verse ). I got lines on a front porch post of dates and years you grew the most. All that time just passing by. I got your truck sitting in the yard, I bet you rolled it 100 yards. I didn’t get a chance to say goodbye. Your mom came by and picked up your clothes, one Guitar and your cell phone, and I got left with a broken heart.

(Pre-chorus)But I got the memories that we built by hand. Watching you grow from a boy to a man and I’m just hoping you can understand.

Chorus) It’s gonna be a long day wishing for another way ,fighting back all these tears I cry, holding back emotions just trying to survive . and it’s gonna be a long night trying to get my mind right ,living with the fact that you’re not here ,holding my composure while I drink this beer . It’s gonna be a long day and a long night without you here.

(Second verse). Well, I’ve been sitting here thinking back to all the good times that we had. Riding Harley‘s and Howie partied hard. You make me laugh with all the shit you’d say. I don’t think there was ever a day where you didn’t steal my heart and make me proud.

(pre-chorus). But I got the memories that we built by hand, watching you grow from a boy to a man. And I’m just hoping you can understand.

(chorus). It’s gonna be a long day wishing for another way. Fighting back all these tears I cry. Holding back emotions just trying to survive. And it’s going to be a long night, trying to get my mind right. Living with the fact that you’re not here, holding my composure while I drink this beer. It’s gonna be a long day a long night Without you here.
