he was a kidder
typical class clown
It never felt too tough when davy was around
quick with a laugh he never thought twice
his best friend gabe popped beer caps with his knife
he was too smart but he was too kind
did what he could for the ones having a worse time
wonder what he looks like with one of those haircuts
he joined the army then we didn’t speak much
now gabe works a long day
and he's too tired to make it out
he's getting dry and he's doing good
and you know, you know i'm proud
gave a call and got the tone
got upset
and got it off my chest
asked about sarah and asked about gabe
said, "what do you know about those guys these days?"
it’s crazy to think back now
it’s crazy what a kid will do
cuz boredom is death and we were so desperate for something new
yeah once we got chased out over a bet, that he won square
we laughed so hard, right out the bar
but I guess you had to be there
and where have you been, my whole life?
you could’ve caught me at a much worse time
rub your eyes, leave in the morning, say goodbye
swear i once mistook a shooting star for headlights
and I don’t know
if that says anything about me
to you
today
