The Weather (Grandpa’s Song) Lyrics by Lauren Duski

Midwestern Girl - EP

2019

[Verse 1]
Christmas wasn't the same without her
But we put up that tree anyway
He said, "Kids don't make a fuss. This year it's just another day"
We do our best to keep it normal
And it all works for a little while
Took him beating me at a hand of cards to finally crack a smile
[Chorus]
If he still drank, he'd be drinking
If he still smoked, he'd be lightning one up
If he wasn't shutting down
About right now, he'd be opening up
About how he finished all her stories
And bought her magazines
The gossip kind from the check out line
She always loved to read
Telling me all about sixty-five years together
But right now he can only talk about the weather
[Verse 2]
I catch him looking at her favorite chair
I can almost read his mind
I bet he can see her sitting there
I bet he's going back in time
He's thinking how they loved like crazy
And how they fought like cats
About all the things he misses
Wishing the good lord would give her back
[Chorus]
If he still drank, he'd be drinking
If he still smoked, he'd be lightning one up
If he wasn't shutting down
About right now, he'd be opening up
About how he finished all her stories
And bought her magazines
The gossip kind from the check out line
She always loved to read
Telling me all about sixty-five years together
But right now he can only talk about the weather
[Chorus]
I know if he still drank, he'd be drinking
If he still smoked, he'd be lighting one up
If he wasn't shutting down
About right now, he'd be opening up
About how he finished all her stories
And bought her magazines
The gossip kind from the check out line
She always loved to read
Telling me all about sixty-five years together
But right now he can only talk about the weather
[Outro]
It's okay
We can talk about the weather
