Michael Brinkworth - Force of Nature

You’re such a force of nature
No one could stop you if they tried
And I don’t know what I’m gonna do
On the day I hear you died
It is more than the music
It’s the look that’s in your eyes
You’re such a force of nature
And you don’t have to tell me why
The first time that I heard that
Growling Gibson full of gain
I was taken to a place
Where I didn’t know my name
But your high natural vibrato
Guided me through the yellow haze
Til I found myself in the barn where it’d begun
And it was there I knew I was one
Your albums through the seventies
I just could not fault one
They’re my bread, they’re my butter
They’re my home for a life on the run
The first time I saw you playing
I was with my father, you were with old friends
The second time was even better
I was high, we were in Berlin
If I hadn’t have been so late
Would you’ve slept on that tour bus
But if I had’ve met you
It probably would have been all a bit too much
I don’t know what I would’ve said
Or what we would’ve discussed
But if I had the chance again
I would try to find the words to say
You’re such a force of nature
No one could stop you if they tried
And I don’t know what I’m gonna do
On the day I hear you died
It is more than the music
It’s the look that’s in your eyes
You’re such a force of nature
And you don’t even have to try
And I know there’s almost no way
That you’ll ever hear this song
And even if you did
You’d probably think it was a bit too long
You always knew how to get to the point of things
Without ever wasting a word
While I’m still here hoping it matters
Trying to write the best thing I’ve never heard
You’re such a force of nature
No one could stop you if they tried
And I don’t know what I’m gonna do
On the day I hear you died
It is more than the music
It’s the look that’s in your eyes
You’re such a force of nature
And you don’t have to tell me why
And you don’t even have to try
And you leave me wondering why
