this song is in loving memory of my friend Robert Ash
Lyrics
Id give all my strength just to stop em/ take his place and put me in that coffin/
Where I lie in the end/ see I’d die for a friend/ just to give him one more day/
A day to see the sun/ a day to see the one he called mary/ to be happily married
And not buried/ A day to see his family/ a day to just rest and hanging in that
Canopee/ i'd rather this be the end of me/ july 26 is when you were laid to rest/ id pray to god to save and gave you my breath/ I wish I could turn back the hands of time/ and head backwards/ just to see your smiling face and hear your laughter/ now we all hang our heads and cry/ but I know your still here by my side/ its so sad to say goodbye/ memories are captured in photographs/ hoping those moments would everlast/ and never pass/ memories are taking us back/ to when we use to chill you be making us laugh.
I still cant believe your gone/ it seems so wrong/ my mind is filled with questions of why,
Why him, why now, to someone whos so young/ in our hearts you live on/ forever and ever/we’ll never let go/ and keep you with us wherever we go/ I made this song in the memory of rob/ now we need to let him be with god/
we never got to say are goodbyes/ and when I wanna break down and cry/ I see you smiling down straight from the sky/ see he was my friend/ but I know someday we will see you again/ I remember from the time we met/ now I think back to all the time we spent/ those were the best times that I’ll never forget/
