Less Like Strangers

I remember all the times
That I would drown out my nights
With one too many drinks
And Im sorry for all the things I did
And said to you
I owe my life to the both of you
The patience youve kept
And passed down to me
Gives me the strength
To deal with almost anything
And Id deliver a bloody fist
To those who would destroy it
The love youve given me
Is a perfect example of unconditional
And Ive often failed to return the favor.
For some reason Ive never been able
To open myself up to you
And for that I blame myself
Mother and I would sit and watch the rain
Pour down from a humid Florida sky
And its those rare days that I cherish most
And father; your ability to make the best of everything
Is a gift Ill forever thank you for
Every waking moment
I wish you were less like strangers
And I know that this is somehow
A mistake that I have made
For some reason Ive pushed myself
Away from you
And this is hard for me to change
If only I could reverse time
If I could somehow bridge this gap
If this were easy for me
I wouldnt bother writing this
And Id tell you how I feel face to face
But Im sorry that Im weak
So I wrote this for you.

| Absolutely beautiful. I feel exactly the same way, only you were able to put it into words better than I ever could. Amazing! |
