Almost Had To Die
Scott Miller/Lee Johnson
He was drinkin' at the bar again, longer than he thought
Missed his daughter's play that day, he just plain forgot
Drivin home he ran a red light, was t-boned by a truck
The doctors said he survived by pure luck
His wife and kids held his hands in that hospital room
he realized how much he had to lose
He Almost Had to Die, to open his eyes
Almost lost sight of all the best things in life
blinded for a while, but now he see's things right
He Almost Had to Die, to open his eyes
Years ago he told his Dad , they'd never speak again
He planned to live up to his word, til the bitter end
Everything has changed since then, so he picked up the phone
The numbers came right back, as he called home
He wanted a chance to apologize and explain
He didn't want to waste another day
Chorus then Bridge:
Swears he saw his Grandma's ghost, in a dream he can't forget
He was heading towards a bright light, she said "you're not done living yet"
Chorus quiet then big, then vamps out...
