"The story about losing my all time favorite quilt my dear Grandmother made for me of Kerrville Folk Festival T-Shirts back in the '90s... the worst part? I believe I left it on the roof of my minivan before I pulled out to go to Kerrville... never found, always missed!"

Lyrics

Track 7 - Quilt – Bill Nash – DGDGAD Tuning – Capo on 4

I miss you, on days like this when the winter rolls through my window
I miss you, all those nights you were here,
I would wrap you around me, my cares would fade away

I miss you, memories of your love given freely to me I don't feel anymore
I miss you, times you lay on my bed waiting for the next time I caress you

Chorus

Now I know you live far away from me
And someone else holds you like I used to do
I wish one more chance to help you see
I never wanted to be parted from you

I miss you, you slipped right through my grasp
Like a thief in the still of the night
Oh, I miss you, you’re my thread to the past
To touch you, so soft and so light

Ch

Bridge
I’d give a king's ransom if I had it to give,
I'd hand it away in a heartbeat
How fiercely I’d hold you, I’d never let go,
I’d cherish no other above you

I miss you, when I think of the hands that made you so pure,
Stitched with my Grandma’s love
Oh I miss you, I still feel her touch,
I miss you so much more 'cause she made you

Now that you’re so far away from me,
I hope someone in need is loving on you
Maybe one day they’ll finally see
They’ll never want to be parted from you
