Verse
I've been meaning to call you
but I been busy it's been crazy
between work and classes I barely have time to sleep
I meant to tell you thanks for the fifty
that you mailed me for my birthday
It'll come in handy in panama city next week
yeah well have a good time
and be careful don't worry bout me
Well I know I don't call you near enough
it's alright don't be tearing up
just know I'm out here doing fine
and you're always on my mind
Verse
I've been meaning to call you
you won't believe me
I finally found her
I bet you started wonderin' if I'd end up alone
You're gonna love her
she's the daughter of a preacher
a third grade teacher
she's the closest thing to perfect I swear I've ever known
are you free on friday I'd love to bring her back home
Chorus
Well I know I don't call you near enough
it's alright don't be tearing up
just know I'm out here doing fine
and you're always on my mind
Verse
I been meaning to call you
she lost the first tooth
she said to tell you
that the tooth fairy left a whole dollar right by her bed
Lastly she drew a picture of grandpa fishing in heaven
no I still don't think she understands
I can't imagine how quiet that house is with him gone
but momma I promise I'll call more often, from now on.
I been meaning to call you
I been meaning to call you
whoa I been meaning to call you
