Tom Rosenthal - Now You Know lyrics

It's okay dad you can go We're all here And we know That you're traveling soon I've sung you all the songs that I can sing Mostly George Formby with none of the strings It's funny where we can end up A life in fields And now you're here Not a blade of grass You were born in wild Australia Had to go a long way to be who you are I did this thing towards the end Where I put my head right against your head And I just held it there And tried to store up every single vein Fixed in my mind for all tomorrow's days For all tomorrow's days And so to the last night of your stay Waited up all night And watched you sleep I've never done that before And you know what, it was the best night of my life To be close to your dreams for the very first time It was a gentle afternoon I think Tuesday And there you lay You were trying to die We opened up the window so you could fly Soar away into the rest of our lives I just hope you made it past the hospital car park In the middle of the night Some years back You told your wife that you could not sleep You said that you were scared to die But you were curious to see the other side Well now you know Now you know
