[Verse 1]
Threw a rock into the water
Watched it sink down to the bottom
Tryna find the lesson in it all, but
I haven't learned anything
Never looked much like my father
One year older but somehow I feel younger
I see it more now that he's gone
Or maybe I just see him in everything

[Chorus]
And how could it take so long?
Thought I had it handled but it slipped through
I didn't know it'd be this hard
So far away, and then it hits you

[Verse 2]
Called you when I heard the news
Spent the night lying next to you
What a way to start it off
So heavy from the start

[Chorus]
And how could it take so long?
Thought I had it handled but it slipped through
Didn't know it'd be this hard
So far away, and then it hits you
So far away, and then it hits you
So far away, and then it hits you
Like it was yesterday
