Merrilee - Tanner Townsend (Original)

I wrote this song for my Grandma Merrilee who passed away from Alzheimers. I love her so much. Looking forward to seeing her again one day. :)

Lyrics:

Outstretched hands drenched in paint
Paint a waterfall cause you love the rain
You gave your love when you felt pain
And I still cry when I hear your name

Drive along the interstate,
deep talks along the way
And all these things I’ve come to love,
and I can feel you up above, pushing through the heartache

With a hope that our paths will meet someday
Gathered up with everyone you’ve changed
And you will say, we’ll be okay
We all must bleed some day
But for now, what’s inside of me
Bullet straight to the heart, you left a hole
A perfect hole

Listen patiently as I count away
Passing castle walls in UK
Memories of perfect love
Always showed me I’m enough, pushing through the heartache

With a hope that our paths will meet someday
Gathered up with everyone you’ve changed
And you will say, we’ll be okay
We all must bleed some day
But for now, what’s inside of me
Bullet straight to the heart, you left a hole
A perfect hole

We wear your name for years to come
I’ll hear your laugh when I’m feeling numb
And all these things I’ve come to love
And I can feel you up above pushin through the heartache

With a hope that our paths will meet someday
Gathered up with everyone you’ve changed
And you will say, we’ll be okay
We all must bleed some day
But for now, what’s inside of me
Bullet straight to the heart, you left a hole
A perfect hole
