I wanna send this one out
to my dad in Lancaster prison
I love you anywhere you go
I swear soon I’ll come visit
till then here’s “Smile Now, Cry Later”
Send one to my baby
fifth night in a row, she's locked me out
tell her I'm waiting and I hope
she lets me back in somehow
Here’s “Always & Forever”
Art would you read my letter to my family back at home.
Tell them I miss them, give my wife a kiss through the microphone
And play “Gangsters Get Lonely Too”
I wanna send one out with forgiveness on my breath
to all the ghosts out here, all the ones that never left
Play em “Groovin’ on a Sunday Afternoon”
Art, all around my home
Somewhere in the heartbeat there
Are all those once in a lifetime dances
all our drunken relatives shared
Go on and let our love and our forgiveness into the air
with the El Monte Legion Stadium
still lingering up there somewhere
