Keep me rocking, rocking chair
Long before me you were here
You will be when I'm gone
A little faded and you've got scars
That's what made you who you are
So just hold me in your arm, arm
Take me back to that kitchen floor
Where life was a little bit more
About each other and the love we showed
Our mother God rest her soul
Time goes by and seasons change
I'd go back there but I can't
So I guess I'll count on you
Yeah, keep me rocking, rocking chair
Long before me you were here
You will be when I'm gone
A little faded and you've got scars
That's what made you who you are
So just hold me in your arm, arms
I know you're in a brand new place
And it feels so far away
Just like me you miss her face
But that same blood is running through my veins
Time goes by and seasons change
I'd take you back there but I can't
So you can count on me
To keep you rocking, rocking chair
Long before me you were here
You will be when I'm gone
A little faded and you've got scars
That's what made you who you are
So just hold me in your arm, arms
Don't let go
Even if I ask you to
'Cause heaven knows
I need this more than you
Keep me rocking, rocking chair
Long before me you were here
And you will be when I'm gone
We both faded and we've got scars
That's what made us who we are
So just hold me in your arm, arms
Arms, mmhm-hmm
