My best friend lost his older brother at the far too young age of 21. He was killed in a car collision on his way to work. And my poor beautiful best friend, who was only 18 at the time, was the only one home when the police came to the house to give the terrible news.
"Gone Away" is the song that summed up exactly how the family felt and still feels but they decided against playing it at the funeral as it seemed to hard for a funeral. The lyrics are so beautiful and sad.
In two days it will have been a year since he passed away. RIP
Lyrics
Maybe in another life I could find you there Pulled away before your time I can't deal it's so unfair
And it feels And it feels like Heaven's so far away And it feels Yeah it feels like The world has grown cold Now that you've gone away
Leaving flowers on your grave Show that I still care But black roses and Hail Mary's Can't bring back what's taken from me
I reach to the sky And call out your name And if I could trade I would
And it feels And it feels like Heaven's so far away And it stings Yeah it stings now The world is so cold Now that you've gone away Gone away, gone away, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oooooo, yeah oooooo, oooooo, Ohh yeah.
I'll Save Your Soul Whoa. Yeaaaaaeeeaaeah. Mm.
I reach to the sky And call out your name Oh please let me trade I would
And it feels And it feels like Heaven's so far away And it feels Yeah it feels like The world has grown cold Now that you've gone away Gone away, gone away, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
