about

My parents gave me a beautiful George Washington lilac bush for my birthday one year. A late spring freeze always ruined the tender buds and it would never make it to the stage of full blooms.

The first spring after my father died, I was sitting out by the lilac bush with my guitar and realized that the bush had bloomed for the first time ever. It was the inspiration for this song.

lyrics

Missin' You
By Frances Drost

Well we've seen another winter come and go
All the lilacs are blooming there's no more snow
But I miss you more than ever and the saying's not true
That time will heal 'cause I've been missin' you

All the birds have been singing their regular tunes
And in our feeder out back we've been seeing quite a few
Like a yellow gold finch and a sparrow or two
But when I see them gather I'll be missin' you

Springtime reminds me of you
In the winter season
I'm thinking of you
And if time is a healer then it's moving pretty slow
'Cause I've seen another season and I'm missing you

It's been a couple years since we let you go
But a myriad of memories let the teardrops flow
Like the curve in your smile and your eyes of blue
And they still remind me that I'm missing you

There's a time to be planting and a time to reap
A time to be laughing and a time to weep
And I've done it all that is certainly true
But whether laughing or crying I'll be missing you
