Lake Tahoe (For My Father) lyrics

Song information

Artist: Sherwood
Album: Sing, But Keep Going

Lyrics

These steps they remind me of places that I used to know
The smell and the sand of lake tahoe
The restaurants and strip malls and chimney smoke
And these bricks remind me of places I used to go
With log cabins lining a dirt road
When my obligations were in the snow

I miss home and I miss you
When there's no one around and nothing to do

And I still remember those weekends when I was nine
And four hours seemed like a lifetime
But look out the window son, you'll be fine
And I traced the railroad through mountains and watched the trees
The white powder resting on their leaves
As I pulled a blanket over my knees

Oh, I miss home and I miss you
When there's no one around and nothing to do
And I know that you're keeping busy too
But I miss home and I miss you
