[Verse 1]
Your granddad left home for the circus
He was young just like me
With hope to explore
He married a girl in Virginia
She could swing the trapeze
They could sleep on the floor
[Verse 2]
Your mother was born in December
On the one sunny day that winter gave up
With warm summer eyes that flickered like fireflies
And she stared at the world
[Chorus]
So why do you leave these stories unfinished
My Cheshire cat doorstop with tears in your eyes?
And why do you look when you've already found it?
And what did you find that would leave you walking by?
[Verse 3]
She was raised in a New England village
Then she moved to LA with her firefly stare
And you loved sunset strip when it sparkled
You grew up and you sparkled, but why don't you care?
