Abandon Kansas - What You Meant Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I see the labor on your hands
The wisdom on your head
I watched the way you built our home
And kept our family fed

Hardly heard "I love you"
The words were barely said
But I saw what you did
And I knew what you meant

[Refrain]
Oh, I knew what you meant
Oh, I knew what you meant

[Verse 2]
Set the standard high for me
The way you set your own
But strength can be your weakness
When you're going it alone

I know you want the best for me
I know that's your intent
And I heard what you said
And I knew what you meant
[Refrain]
Oh, I knew what you meant
Oh, I knew what you meant

[Verse 3]
I slept through your sermons
You slept in torment
Faithful in your calling
Still, members came and went

[Bridge]
You could fix anything
But you could't fix the cancer
You lost your parents
No one had the answer

I expected sorrow
Heaviness from it
But all I heard was silence
And I knew what you meant

[Refrain]
Oh, I knew what you meant
Oh, I knew what you meant

Oh
Oh, I knew what you meant
[Verse 4]
You'll always be my father
But now you are my friend
I'll follow in your footsteps
Until the sidewalk ends

Your life will be my anchor
Buried in cement
And I will show my children
They'll know how much you meant

[Spoken]
Damn it
