patches - mirabai kukathas lyrics

my papa called me sunday morning from the fair
two and a half thousand miles and three hours between us
he called when i was combing my hair

he was standing in the farm animal section
holding his phone up high for a better reception

he said “i called to show you this cow i thought you’d like
his name is patches, he’s the biggest cow in sight”
i told my dad i liked the cow
my dad nodded and hung up the phone
and all day i felt a little less alone
i love you, patches the cow
i love you so much
but i don’t know how
to tell you in a language that we both understand
cause i talk in milе long letters
and you speak in hеlping hands
but i know i’ll love you ten times more tomorrow
than i even do right now
patches the cow

my papa saw me sobbing harder than i have in years
he went away and left me crying with my mama
he’s not so good at dealing with tears

eventually i went to bed
to see if i’d feel better crying alone instead

then i heard a little knock on my door
in came my dad, hair drenched from outside’s pour
he brought me the bluebells that grow in our backyard
he gave them to me silently
i guess words are still too hard

but i love you, bluebell flowers
thank you for staying with me through the endless hours
cleaning up my messes, and picking me up from school
singing in the car, telling me i’ll be a star
getting my goggles from the bottom of the pool
and i’d tell you i love you if i could talk to plants
but i don’t have those magic powers
bluebell flowers
i love you, patches the cow
i love you so much
but i don’t know how
to tell you in a language that we both understand
cause i talk in mile long letters
and you speak in helping hands
but i know i’ll love you ten times more tomorrow
than i even do right now
patches the cow
