This is a song I wrote about a couple of friends who left this world way too soon.
Alabama Sun
Oh good friend of mine
We didn’t get the time
On this Earth that I thought we would
I was just a young man
And you were like a hero
Living life like I wished I could
But under the Alabama sun
Guardian angels were carried away
Neglecting their task at hand
Letting you slip away
Now it’s been so long
More and more I understand
I hope your heart is free
Of the pain like you planned
Oh good friend of mine
We didn’t get the time
On this Earth that I thought we would
You were like a sister
Never made me feel a “third wheel”
The first of few to ever treat me good
But under the Alabama sun
Guarding angels were carried away
Neglecting their task at hand
Letting you slip away
I can hear your voice like a song
The guitar you let me play
I know your soul is free
Save me a spot when I fly away
Seems a little quiet over here
