That April date,
Who knew it’d be the last
That we were enjoying life
It seems the day went by so fast
———-
Four o’clock came
And we headed home
Passing our special place
With waters white as foam
———-
The day ended and I said goodnight
You waved goodbye,
smiled
and then turned out your light
———-
You never made it clear
That they were doing this to you
A young and daring boy
Is all we ever knew
———-
In the eyes of those you were unknown to
You had your glory days
For a moment, your name was known to them
Now it’s lost in a haze
———-
But to me, you’re always here
Lingering around
Your memory carried through the wind
Is forever my favorite sound
———-
In the reality of it all,
you thought it was time to go,
So now your hands are clasped together
for an infinity or so
———-
Above all thoughts I guess
You thought life wasn’t meant to be
And felt like your soul was in prison
And death was the only escape to set it free
———-
It’s been sometime now
And things don’t feel the same
For your soul is missing from this life
And I feel like I’m to blame
———-
In Heaven, you’re free from pain
And surrounded by love
And now you are my angel
Watching from above.
