Unveiling Songtext
von Daffo

Dad′s an angry driver
Pulls a Jersey Slide
Black fly hits the windshield
Dead on the passenger side

Pull into the funeral home
Climb the hill to unveil the gravestone
Now I pray for an aunt I never knew I had
And I cry 'cause I learned I never knew my dad

And we all grieve together different things
While the highway sings

You must be Gabriella
Look how much you grew
Cousin Jacob, enthused like I′d heard of you
Introduce me to your wife
Belly full, growing a new life


Now I pray for a baby sharing in my blood
And I cry, knowing I missed out on all this love

And we all grieve together different things
While the highway sings

Found out Tuesday that the baby died
Born still to her mother, my cousin's wife
And selfishly, I couldn't wait to hold her
′Cause I don′t think I want one when I'm older
And I don′t know if I can say her name now
If my ears are worthy of the sweet sound

Of Adalie, Adalie, Adalie
Adalie, Adalie, Adalie
Adalie, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
