Story Behind the Song
My mother was a singer/songwriter, and I wrote this about her passing, and how she lives in me, not only genetically, but also her talent, her view on life. The idea that death is final, is proven unsubstantiated in this song, and I have seen it's effect on people who listen to it. I
believe we are all connected to our ancestors, and are capable of drawing knowledge and strength from those who have gone before us. Also, what we do, and learn from our life here, becomes available for future generations. If MP3
can remember my work, after I've gone,
surely a million year old DNA system can!
Lyrics
It makes me sad to think you have gone
I know how much you would have loved
To live on.
There's an empty space that you used to fill, I wish your liveliness coul be here still
What else seemed right, after you were taken.
The endless nights, I wished you'd return
And only Life, with it's magic moments
Helps me believe you live on.
I remember you singing, making up a song, I would fall asleep, singing along
If there's a heaven that's where you belong, through the part of you in me
You live on
What else seemed right, after you were taken..........
I see you in my children, oh how they've
grown.
Through the part of you in us, we're never alone.
However hard the journey, we'll all come home.
Through the part of you in us, you live on.
What else seemed right............
