    A song for my army buddy who lost his 5 year old cousin in a horrible fire.
    CD: Papa Legba   Label: none
    Credits: Daniel Guberman and Daryn Grandbois

    Story Behind the Song
    My buddy Sylvain's tears as he learned about his close cousin's death in a house fire. Her young
    age and the love he had for her pushed me to write a song about the whole
    episode.

    Lyrics
    I barely even know you
    Asleep you swim with my tears
    We tried hard to find you
    And save your five delicate years
    Bouquets of fire, burning into your little gown
    You didn't open your eyes
    As your angry house fell to the ground (2x)
    I barely even know you
    Asleep you swim with my tears
    We tried hard to find you
    And your five delicate years
    You were the only one taken
    This fire has torn into my heart
    In my mind you'll always be laughing
    Was it time for you to depart? (4x)
    I barely even know you
    Asleep you swim with my tears
    I'll try hard to find you
    Someday after five years (3x)
