Written a week after the death from cancer of the closest thing I've ever had to a son...
Lyrics
GHOST
Music & Lyrics by Jera Denny
(for Lance)
++++++++++++++++++++++++
I don't know what it was
That came to me crying last night
Something small and gray and gold...
Somewhat darker than the light
That came from your old place
Only these seven days
Since I held you when you were dying that night
I couldn't help but feeling then, now I know
You wouldn't ever really go....
Away from your old place
I don't know what it's like
To be at once both here and not here
No longer what I was - - but then again
I'm not really here at all
When I look in your old place
Answering where I know
You're supposed to be but you're not
I can't help feeling you, seeing you want to be...
Like we were in the old days
I don't know what you want
If it was you that came to me crying last night
I know that all your life it was me
That gave you what you need
But you're now in a new place
I cannot even see
And there's nothing I could have done here last night
I just hope you hear me telling you I'm crying too
And go into the light
And remember your old place
