A couple of years ago my father died a few days before christmas.As you can imagine it devastated our family.He was a larger than life sort of guy who lead his life in a way that has changed me forever and this i am eternally gratefull.Not a moment passes by without his prescence guiding my soul.Part of this legacy though leaves me with an unfathomable sadness that threatens to overcome me always.I'm glad though in a way i think we are closer now than i can ever remember being.Anyway i wrote this song for my mother as a christmas gift and to this day i can't play it very well i don't think i'll ever get this right but this in itself means something.Anyway hope someone likes it its about losing people close,its just a simple song that someday i'm going to get someone to teach me!If this song means anything to you or you would like to post a comment anyway i would truly love to read your thoughts.Hopefully this song will help you to appreciate the people you love and hold dear before the moment passes and another chance to reach to those close is yet again squandered.Don't let life get you down!
Cheers

Never run away my friend when your feeling sad my friend.
Never run my friend when your feeling down my friend.
I know this aint a good time for you and afterall my friend you've come too far.
You shouldn't be here today.
Never be afraid to tell someone you care my friend.
Never be afraid to show off the little things inside the man.
Sometimes you keep on trying but you can't get in
and you've come too far.
It's like living on the edge since your heart broke down.
Hide these lonely feelings till there's no one around.
Your friends keep on calling because you can't be found, on this your sadest day.
Never be afraid to tell someone your in love my friend.
Never give up on the good things no matter how it hurts my friend.
Sometimes you keep on trying but you can't get in
and you've come so far.
Living on the edge since your heart broke down.
Hide these lonely feelings till there's no one around.
Your friends keep on calling because you can't be found on this your saddest day! (more) (less)
