For Tony by Jeff Walker 4 published on 2022-11-02T16:57:38Z For Tony Jeff Walker - Lyrics & Music You chased a rainbow Caught a falling star Dreams just poured out Of that hole in your guitar The language that you learned to speak Taught what words could never teach How to feel alive When you started out It was bluegrass to the bone But wood and wire takes flight In hands such as your own Manzanita broke the mold Then gravity gave up its hold And opened all our eyes Br Mere emotions can miss the mark We need a glimpse of holiness and grace With music, we can find that place In some dream an angel came But why she couldn’t say Took your enchanted spirit Into the milky way The world turned on as you flew higher Your songs bloomed out from a thousand choirs And rose into the sky Genre Singer Songwriter
