the violet sunsets - slow dancing at a funeral lyrics

your mother weeps right next to me in the peers
she pulled out her black handkerchief to wipe away her tears
she’s reading a verse from the bible
hoping that you made it to heaven
i told her i’m sure you’re doing just fine wherever you are
she keeps on asking me questions

“micah was a good man, wasn’t he?
even though he had some days of sin”
cut my fruit up for me and help me to the shower
take my trash to thе bin
yeah he was a drunkard and he would somеtimes lie
but i really never thought that he was a bad guy
as all he wanted was to help his mother get through the day to day

that’s when she told me she’s had
a reoccurring dream since he died
where he grabs her hand
says “come up with me”
they would turn on their favorite song
and move to the beat
she would feel the motion
she could walk again
she looked up saw her son
and she smiled at him
she forgot all about the burial
slow dancing at a funeral

she brought up how you would always tell this one joke
in the morning before you would be late to work
you’d say “i am always late but i make up for it by always leaving early”
you would chuckle as you moved out the door and say “see ya later mama shirley”

she made her morning coffee
and watched her favorite program
then she got a call stating “is this shirley, ma’am?”
told her the news of how her son’s car was slammed
into and he was hit head+on by a 25+year+old man

she didn’t understand
she was at a loss for words
she dropped her coffee mug right on the floor
started screaming and crawled underneath the sink
praying for the nightmare to end
that’s when she just crawled into bed
took some paink!llers to get on out of her head
she said that was the night she started having the dream
where he grabs her hand
and says “come up here with me”
they would turn on their favorite song
and move slowly to the beat

she would feel the motion
she could walk again
she looked up saw her son
and she smiled at him
she forgot about the burial

slow dancing at a funeral
