Jessica Jordan - The Chairlift (sponsored by Empathy Through Art)

There’s a chairlift on the stairs
And it’s been there for ten years
Through your grandparents’ bad health
Now it’s for your mom and dad
But they paid off the house
Before grandfather passed
He offered them his help
They’d do the same for us
The same for us
They’d do the same for us
The same for us
Every time we’re over here
The kids make such a mess
But Granny knows they’ll clean
Oh she knows they’re good for it
They’re good for it
She knows they’re good for it
They’re good for it, oh
I look and I see
He watches while I write
In front of the chairlift
With a blanket in his hand
And his left thumb in his mouth
He can’t leave me alone
When I ask him to
But someday, he’ll stay away
When I just want him home
I just want him home, I just want him home
He’ll stay away when I just want him home
Home, home, home
On the kitsch, the kitsch décor
In the dining room I read
On the kitsch, the kitsch décor
In the dining room, it said:
Thank you for the food before us
Thank you for the friends beside us
Thank you for the love between us
Love
Thank you for the food before us
Thank you for the friends beside us
Thank you for the love between us
Love, love, love, oooooh
