About a lost friend

lyrics

Intro
I’m really not a singer,
Just singing a song, trying to forget

Chorus
No matter how hard I try, the tears fall from the sky
Joy overcome by pain, am I crying or is this the rain
Time was short, how could we know
Yesterday was so long ago.

Verse 1
You were always there so full of life and love
Running free without a care
Innocent and pure like a dove
You had purple ribbons in your hair.

Chorus
No matter how hard I try, the tears fall from the sky
Joy overcome by pain, am I crying or is this the rain
Time was short, how could we know
Yesterday was so long ago.

Verse 2
Searching for answers, but none are found
Cycle of life, for we are bound
Did we do enough, times can be rough
Caught up in despair, often to much to bear

Chorus
No matter how hard I try, the tears fall from the sky
Joy overcome by pain, am I crying or is this the rain
Time was short, how could we know
Yesterday was so long ago.

Verse 3
The little ones all flocked to you, you were so gentle and kind
Rain or shine you were never blue
A better friend you will never find
One of a kind, so very true

Chorus
No matter how hard I try, the tears fall from the sky
Joy overcome by pain, am I crying or is this the rain
Time was short, how could we know
Yesterday was so long ago.

Verse 4
Life goes but not the same
Happiness is replaced by sorrow
It’s time to reset the game,
For the tears are sure to follow
Sweet dreams, my love
We all come to an end, not knowing when
Keep a lookout from above, we will be together again.
