The day I left for California
You blew me kisses from the door
It crossed my mind in that moment
That some goodbyes mean goodbye a little more
We facetimed every morning
It always went like a script
You asked if I ate, I said "yes I ma'am I did"
Even if I didn't
Then you'd sign off, blew some more kisses
I was miles away
When God had called for you
Wish I would've known
I could've flown back sooner
Now I'll do that thing where I look for you
In birds passing by or dreams where you pass through
'Cause yesterday, I just missed the distance
But right now, I know if I listen
You're closer now than ever
Today came without a warning
Even the forecast was off
It started to hail in Santa Monica
And my dad made a joke
Said "she must've got her hail-o"
I was miles away
When god had called for you
Wish I would've known
I could have flown back sooner
Now I'll do that thing where I look for you
In birds passing by or dreams where you pass through
'Cause yesterday, I just missed the distance
But right now, I know if I listen
You're closer now than ever
In butterflies, or finding dimes, angel numbers, flickering lights
In shooting stars, and tarot cards, pretty rainbows
Lucky charms
That's where you are
'Cause what are the odds?
You're sending signs from above
Guess I'll do that thing where I look for you
In birds passing by or dreams where you pass through
Yesterday, I just missed the distance
But right now, I know if I listen
You're closer now
I guess I'll do that thing where I look for you
In birds passing by or dreams where you pass through
Yesterday, I just missed the distance
But right now, I know if I listen
You're closer now, than ever
You're closer now, than ever
