A sad song

Artist picture
I am a singer songwriter based in Torquay and I record my songs as the Legendary Ten Seconds.
The Legendary Ten Seconds started off as the solo music project of Ian Churchward during the time when he was the lead guitar player of The Morrisons who were featured on John Peel's radio one show back in 1987. In 2013 Lord Zarquon joined Ian's music project and since then various guest musicians and vocalists have helped out in the recording studio. The most recent musician to join the project is Jay Brown who has helped to compose and record a song called the Time Stream. The Legendary Ten Seconds have recorded many critically acclaimed English folk rock albums which chronicle the Wars of the Roses and the life and times of Richard III in England during the late 15th century. The albums are available on Amazon and itunes and the band have donated money to a scoliosis charity from some of the income generated from the sale of their music.

Story behind the song
This sad song come into my head as I was walking along Barton Road in Torquay.
Lyrics
Just a child when she died Oh how her parents cried She died before her time Before her time was due In his twenties he had dreams They came to nothing so it seems He died before his time Before his time was due Who knows when it’s time to go I guess it’s better that we don’t know In her forties she was beautiful So full of life her death was cruel She died before her time Before her time was due Who knows when it’s time to go I guess it’s better that we don’t know Some die before their time is due You’re lucky if it doesn’t happen to you Just a child when she died Oh how her parents cried She died before her time Before her time was due
