Losing A Light (For Tony)
At Chamberlain on the road back home, I got the call that you were gone. I knew you’d leave me here someday, But to hear the news … blew me away.
It’s a colder world you leave behind, You weren’t one in a million, you were one of a kind, Loved by everyone you knew - Now I can’t believe… your journey’s through.
Through all your years we shared our lives, All the ups and downs upon that road we ride, You were more than a blood and a club Brother, man, You were just like my son, you were my best friend.
It broke your heart when I did time For being selfish, drunk and blind, Still you’d come to visit me - And through your eyes I learned to see.
And I won’t betray what you believed. You always showed your pride in me, You took me everywhere that you wold go A thousand people told me so.
I close my eyes and I have to laugh Your sense of humor was a master’s craft You made me see I’m worth a damn You shaped me into who I am
I could never count the lives you touched The ones I’ve met you moved so much I look around this room today At all these friends and I can see their pain
I also know the fight you had As you body went from good to bad But you never let it dim your light There’s a bright new star in the sky tonight
Your last few days were spent with those You missed the most, you loved and chose You came home happy and went to sleep Something in you felt complete
Then You broke the lock, the ties that held you here I’ll see you out there in a few more years With two of us inside this vest I’ll ride for both of us I guess. |
