"notes from Dad" lyrics

Can't take your call right now
Just leave your message after the tone

Uh, hello, Dad
Um, yeah, so I wanted to call you, um
There's a song on the album and it's about that time where we didn't talk for kind of four or five years
And um, there was something that made me reach out, and I think it's one of the best things I ever did
And the song is about, if you love someone, tell me
And it's ironic because I wanted to tell you, um, but I couldn't
I called you at a time when I knew you wouldn't pick up
Um, and yeah, I love you, basically
Um, so yeah
