    LYRICS:
    i met superman with you,
    charlie brown and jesus too,
    on those nights i couldn't sleep,
    you were always there with me,
    when i was young and faint of heart,
    you'd tell me stories in the dark,
    & when I felt, I couldn't fly,
    you and peter took me on a ride,
    you said, "son don't be afraid to die,
    it was an awfully great adventure,"
    so much of who we are,
    is in those stories in the dark,
    what we learned when we were young,
    sets the table for our lives,
    bread we break, it fills our hearts and feeds our loss,
    and even though, you're not here anymore,
    i hear your voice.
    cats in the cradle and the silver spoon,
    used to make me cry, guess I still do,
    i didn't want that for me and you,
    i know that we'll be together soon,
    cause when I wonder where you are,
    i hear those stories in the dark,
    i know someday i'll tell my own,
    & then someday when you've moved on,
    i'll tell him, "son don't be afraid to die,
    we had an awfully great adventure,"
    now i know right where you are,
    you're in my stories in the dark,
    i see you there, in the corner of my mind,
    i hear you there, but you stay a step behind,
    even though, you're not here anymore, i hear your voice.

    I've lost too many people, whether by death, moving away, or just drifting apart. This song reminds me to move on, but remember who I was when they were with me.

      I may be five years late to comment but I know how you felt. I too have had friends and family pass away, scatter across the United States and completely drift apart. It’s rough especially since while I was growing up until the age of 5 or 6 all my brother myself and our mother had was her side of the family because my biological father walked out of the picture before I was born. Even when I was adopted by my then stepdad and until I turned 14 I was always pretty close to my mom’s side of the family. All of that changed after my Nana(grandmother) passed away during the summer of my freshman year and with her loss the ties holding my mom’s side of the family came unraveled culminating in my papa, aunt and cousin moving to Tennessee after selling the house that I had spent a good portion of my life in. Now I’m 21 years old and my what family I do have contact with is my grandmother on my adoptive father’s side, my brother parents, occasionally my biological father through Facebook messenger and occasionally my half sister via text messages.

    it's silly, but i slept in my dad's room until i was like... eight or nine. now that he's sick, i look back and miss it. this song reminds me a lot of him and it brings me to tears every time.

    This is literally the BEST song ever. Everything about it is just PERFECT. The melody, lyrics, Sam's voice.. Perfect, just perfect. I couldn't have asked for a better song. How is this not on Spotify?!! I'd have it on repeat 24/7, haha! Anyways, wonderful job.. This song is SO good. Just so good. I literally have no words for this. Definitely my favourite song❤

  • @suhrealist

    Oh, you guys. This song made me so emotional! My dad used to read to me every night too, and I just know those nights and those stories will be what I remember most when he's gone.

    I'm 16 and my daddy died April 25th this year. I miss him a lot especially with it getting near the holidays. I'm a huge paradise fears fan so I'm not sure how I didn't see this before now but I'm glad I didn't because I need it now, I didn't need it before.

    It kind of reminds me of You To Believe In, but specifically for parents.

  • @savannahdonaldson1585
    @savannahdonaldson1585 4 роки тому +2

    "And even though you're not here anymore, I hear your voice." *sobs* This made me think of my dad. On October 10th this year, it will have been 11 years since he's been gone. I miss him so much. :'( But this song is very beautiful. I like it. :)

    This song reminds me of my mom. I've been listening to it for months and it just now hit me. She passed just before Christmas in 2012. It was the day my world ended. I'm practically weeping and have no idea why. This is such a beautiful song. I love you guys.

I'm from Willetton High School in Perth, Western Australia. Hope you guys don't mind me using your music. Sorry that I didn't ask first.
