the herd - grandma's song lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i was all i could do to stay calm
i had woken up, before the call had come
after partying all of the night before
i woke suddenly, at 5am
didn’t yawn i sat up and took the call
the voice held firm at the other end
gently speaking of the things that were happening
and it set my mind racing, as i steadied with my arm
it was all i could do, to stay calm

[verse 2]
i could not recall the number for the place
nothing was open but, i tried calling just the same
all of my logical thinking, was scrambled
over and over, just trying to get a handle
i remember she was apathetic
plain as day asked, which account she could debit
i read her the credit card, and i welled up
it was all i could do to stay calm

[verse 3]
i left as the sun rose by the beachside
joggers looked at me, as they ran by
i tried to hurry my tears
and wiped them away, but they reappeared
i heard there was a bushfire back as home
and the freeway to get there was closed
i clenched my boarding p-ss, tightly in my palm
it was all i could do to stay calm

[verse 4]
i found a backroad but it was closed
so we turned round and drove back, and tried to joke
then the freeway opened up, we were on our way
shortly before the call came
we had no words to make it okay
we just hurried back to the bedside where she lay
goodbye i whispered, as i held her arm
it was all i could do, to stay calm

[hook 1 urthboy] x2
and i wondered what kind of song i would play
on the morning of, a day like today
gently lift me up, show me the beauty

[verse 5 urthboy]
well on the day my cousin chose a tina turner tune
a celebratory belter that strangely works
and i let all the calmness out, and the tears flowed freely
it was a nondescript central coast church
where i released i’d held in the hurt
and i let all the calmness out, and the tears flowed freely
