happy birthday dad
love you past the moon
and miss you even further

lyrics

i always felt like the edge was better than the center
because the long way around will show you how to resign yourself to the end of it

but if you want it
you know i'll be there
i'll come runnin with bells in my hair
and if you needed someone else, too
you know i'd give it up if i could still love you

i don't know if i am capable
can meet you halfway if you do not care
cause i'm scared that i'll spill the glass it took so long for me to fill

but if you wanted
you know i'll be there
i'll come runnin with bells in my hair
and if you needed someone else to
you know i've given up if i could still love you

you know i'll give it up if i could still love you
you know i've given up if i could still love you

credits

from moving forward, track released July 30, 2022
thanks to ian shelton for the drums
thanks to phil odom for hearing this track hours after i wrote it at echo park in 2020 and offering to make it come to life. three days after we recorded the first version of it, i got the call that my dad died out of nowhere. i'd never been believed in the same way my dad believed in me until i met phil. you are my brother for life, and i am grateful for every second we spent making these songs
