about

My dad went back to see his mother in South Africa before she died. It's a tough thing to do. This song is about that.

lyrics

Make his peace

Words and music Grant Siedle 2003


Father has got to fly his way back home
And talk to his mother for the very last time
Durban’s the place – so many miles away
When he arrives what will she say?

The prodigal son sits with his mother
So many years on his own
Taking the road less traveled
Finding his own way back home

He’s got to make his peace

He said goodbye to sisters and brothers
Got a new job, went out on a limb
Gave up a lifestyle for his children
He threw caution to the wind

The prodigal son sits with his mother
So many years on his own
Taking the road less traveled
Finding his own way back home

Make his peace, say goodbye
She’ll understand by the look in his eye

He’s got to make his peace
