lyrics

Old man, are you dead yet?
I didn't forget how to be a good man
My hands are a sinner's hands
But I didn't forget how to be a good man
You should come around more often
I think the kids might want to see you
And you shouldn't disappoint them after all that they've been through
They won't forget like I forget
I'll let it slide like the other times
Old man, are you dead yet?
I didn't forget how to be a good man

Well I feel guilty for our past sometimes I hope you do too
I want you know that there's still a part of me that wants you to get to know me
I'll get to know you and we'll be friends instead of acquaintances

Now old friend, are you here yet?
It's Monday you said today you'd come home
Please don't forget
Don't do this again
I won't forget

You said when the trees grow their leaves back you'll be knocking on our door
You said you knew that you've done wrong you won't hurt us anymore
Yeah, we got your email and I think this time it's true
I want you to know that there's a part of me that wants you to get to know me
I'll get to know you and we'll be family instead of strangers

Old man, we're at the door step
I didn't forget how to be a good man
Old man, are you dead yet?
You never forgot how to break a man's heart
