    Story Behind the Song
    I usually don't ever co-write with people. But when I do, it's with Phil Costanzo. Along with Sean Bobak, me and Phil founded the band "The Horse Shoe Pitts", which played at the Franciscan University of Steubenville from 1998-2002. We had a lot of fun, but eventually went our separate ways. Anyway, in the summer of 1999, two Franciscan University students, Brian Muha and Aaron Land, were kidnapped and murdered. Brian and Phil were best friends.
    Phil wrote most of this song. I just wrote the words for the verses and arranged the drums and violins. I think it's one of the best songs on my album. It's certainly one of the most popular, but most people don't really know what it's about.

    Lyrics
    When we last met, you were bright and beautiful
    And I saw you standing there alone
    But you’re not coming home, you’re not coming home
    And I saw you by the lantern’s deepest light
    And I saw you walk into the night
    But not without a fight, not without a fight
    Couldn’t even stay for a while, couldn’t even stay for a while,
    couldn’t even stay for a while, couldn’t even stay for a while.
    And I saw you in the green and grassy plain
    But I never saw your face again
    I can’t stand so much pain, can’t stand so much pain
    And you fell beneath the white and blooming flowers
    And the rain fell on your face in showers
    How we searched for hours, how we searched for hours
    Where, oh where do you lie, where oh where do you lie?
    Stay, stay for a while, stay for a while
    Stay, stay for a while, stay for a while
    No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, no.
    No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, no.
    Couldn’t even stay for a while, couldn’t even stay for a while
    Couldn’t even stay for while, roll me down, roll away
    Roll me down, roll away. Roll me down, roll away
    Roll me down, roll away.
