Jared & The Mill Messengers
[Chorus]
Oh! Tell her I'm lost, but that's alright
‘Cause after twenty-something years
I can barely walk a line
Only messengers can tell her how I'm
Missing her tonight
[Verse 1]
If you're looking for her
She's right down the road
She'll be sittin' on a swing in the sun
Making stones turn to gold
Let her know that the family she knew
Keeps her locket and keys
Tell her everything is fine
And she's missed like the winds miss the trees
And if you're searching for her
She's always shedding light
She's the one you can't miss
‘Cause her smile makes the sun seem less bright
But if you find her, be still
Tell her everything about the time you've killed
Let her know that the bad times
Will pass, and I miss her like hell
[Chorus]
Oh! Tell her I'm lost, but that's alright
‘Cause after twenty-something years
I can barely walk a line
Only messengers can tell her how I'm
Missing her tonight
[Verse 2]
But if you're searching for worth
Well, you'll find it with her
But she'll ask for your trust
‘Cause it's hard being shown how to learn
So, let her know that the stars
Haven't moved, God, I hope they're the same
Tell her life could be worse
And I'm trying my best now to change
[Chorus]
Oh! Tell her I'm lost, but that's alright
‘Cause after twenty-something years
I can barely walk a line
Only messengers can tell her how I'm
Missing her tonight
[Verse 3]
If it's after the dawn be sure you're alone
‘Cause she's the kind best enjoyed like a
Pool under cottonwoods and stones
So let her laugh wash
You clean like the rains
On the tilted windowpanes
Give her everything and more
And she'll give you the world in exchange
[Chorus]
Oh! Tell her I'm lost, but that's alright
‘Cause after twenty-something years
I can barely walk a line
Only messengers can tell her how I'm
Missing her tonight
[Bridge]
Tell her everything is good, but I miss how her eyes
Would take me home
Tell her life is getting faster and I miss the way she'd make it
Move so slow
And tell her I am still alive and I wish that was something
I Could boast
‘Cause I'm up in the sky now
And the stars haven't ever seemed this close
[Chorus]
Oh! Tell her I'm lost, but that's alright
‘Cause after twenty-something years
I can barely walk a line
Only messengers can tell her how I'm
Missing her tonight
[Verse 4]
So, if you're searching for love
She's right down the road
She'll be sittin' on a swing in the sun
Making stones turn to gold
