Faces in black and white photos, a smile that I recognize
On the corner of Fairview Avenue, with a dog on the lawn outside
Mom said you grew up by the water, picture perfect view from the East Bay
And I wonder if heaven looks just like the place in that frame
On that near a you home
With your and you haven’t in and it’s for now
But if God a day, I’d those gates
And when I I hope that you show around
Cause I’d love meet you in Alameda
you first learned hopscotch
The you skinned your knees
I’d like a little bit of everything
Cause you’re from’s a piece of me
And I wanna see that coast
Near a you home
With your and you haven’t in and it’s for now
But if God a day, I’d those gates
And when I I hope that you show around
Cause I’d love meet you in Alameda
Is it the same, or from back when you young?
Do you look from the fog and the clouds, wonder time gone?
Home that near a you home
With your and you haven’t in and it’s for now
But I there’ll come a day, I’ll those gates
And when I I hope that you show around
Cause I’d love meet you on the Avenida
In Alameda
Mom said you grew up by the water, picture perfect view from the East Bay
And I wonder if heaven looks just like the place in that frame
