lyrics

called you on the phone last night
Sunday evening conversation
even though you were out of sight
I could see the faces you'd be making

sincere delight and curiosity
of the little things you'd tell me not to fret
you wouldn't ask but hint every time
wondering if I had a boyfriend yet

you came to me in a dream
standing outside my childhood home
looked at me in the eye and said
"you are going to help me move on"

you taught me how to sew by hand
drew a line on the cloth to keep the stitches straight
so much to learn
it's never too late, never too late

you came to me in a dream
standing outside my childhood home
looked at me in the eye and said
"you are going to help me move on"
