No Time to Cry

As I drive... down this road Pages keep turnin' of the faces and places I know Hey there dad... I know you're not home But I'm leaving you this message I'll take care of things while you're gone And there's arrangements to make and Phone calls to take and things that I don't wanna do I got proverbs to find to help ease My mind for the reasons I can't see you Oh Lord... Oh Lord There's no time to cry There she stands Like a statue so strong Just tryin' to understand why half of her life is gone As I walk through a crowded sea There's a line out the door of a thousand or more memories And I knew there'd come a day When I'd have to say we have to put these emotions on a shelf And I knew there's be a time When I'd have to tow the line and think of more than just myself There they are Eyes to the ground To pay one last respect before most of them head out of town Then the wall Finally comes down And I let go, I let go We all say goodbye There's no time to cry
