lyrics

It was cold, dark February day
When your casket was brought away
And my worst fears came true
I lost you
And I thought back to the days in our chairs
Where we watched baseball without a care
And I remember you told me
All I had to do

The rest of the winter was cold and fierce
With walls of snow and frozen tears
And music that didn't pour from the house anymore
Your silence left us deaf
All the singers went without breath
And the guitars they all played out of tune
I remember you told me

Son you're gonna play guitar on the moon
You'll marry a girl in the month of June
And know that things will be alright
Son you're gonna play guitar on the moon
You'll marry a girl in the month of June
And know that things will be alright

But it seemed the dream had ended soon
When you shot up up past the moon
And didn't even buy me time to say goodbye
But just when it all seemed so bleak
You came to me in a dream last week
And reminded me of all that I had to do
You told me "Son you're gonna play guitar on the moon
You marry that girl this June, and keep on learning how to hold a tune
So that you can keep up your fight, you know that wrong won't conquer right
You're only fighting miles
Your future's on the dial"

So I'm off to play guitar on the moon
I board my rocket pretty soon
And I hear that heaven's great
Won't you save me a space
So I can play strong and I'll play loud
I know that you will be around
And that I'll make you proud
When I play where theres no sound
