Dave Again - Farewell Dear Friend

The eyes of a stranger are met in the mirror
What happened to the child he once knew
The world was a dream that he believed in
But time was cruel
The friendship he made along the way
The joy in his heart when he would smile
The laughter that rang out and told you he was here
Were the first to die

And in those empty days of darkness
A child was taken from the sun
And laid bare to the Master's hand
A life undone

There was a time when you were young
And you were called the lucky one
Everyone around you, could see it in your eyes
Those days are gone
Once in while you seek the truth
There are times the truth finds you
There's no denying, this is where you end
A life in ruin

And so it is, we say good bye to you dear friend
Who knows what will come tomorrow
The future's a road that seems to never end
And we will see you again
Your memory carries on
We'll always be together
Your loneliness is gone
Your smile is forever
Rest your weary head
Leave your fears behind
You can spread your wings and fly

And in those empty days of darkness
A child was taken from the sun
And laid bare to the Master's hand
A life undone

Once in while you seek the truth
There are times the truth finds you
There's no denying, the courage in your heart
And love of friends
The friendship you made along the way
The joy in your heart when you would smile
The laughter that sang out and told us you were here
Will never end
