Lyrics
well today was the day we found your mother okay she lives by the sea with her new family well they sing and they dance and they watch, 'true romance' over and over again. well we thought she had died we found her car was in drive sitting at the bottom of the lake and the years did go by and we watched your tears dry and the light coming back on your face well the questions hung high and the feelings run wild for those years that we thought you were gone and a lot sure has changed from the town you once came it's bigger and faster these days with my wife and my home i've got a child of my own he loves listening to stories of you but i can't figure why you never did try to tell me that you were okay well the doc told me true you have no memory of who i am, or who you once were with my wife and my home i've got a child of my own he loves listening to stories of you but i can't figure why you never did try to tell me that you were okay well today was the day we found your mother okay.
