Description
This is a song about a friend and old flame that passed away. He was an eccentric, passionate, artistic person and I loved him dearly. The song is nostalgic but has a hopeful and joyful element to it. This is meant to reflect the rebirth and new opportunity that comes from any tragic ending or death.
Lyrics
Ben By Havilah Rand Copywrite 2009 Tamarand Productions Came as no big surprise Never really hit me Right between the eyes Felt it pickin berries on an August afternoon You were drippin from my mouth you were the shimmer of An ocean moon And I miss you like I miss my Friend from years ago She lives in the city and I’m still a gypsy wanderer But I love you till this day Benjamin I hope that your ok Caught you behind the old town museum Hangin with the crazies and drinkin with the Indians You used to be a sensitive guy But even Jesus had his reasons for knowing he was gonna die And I wish that you were here to hold my hand Cuz I don’t know how to feel Feels like I’m drownin on dry land And I’m angry but I think that I understand Never met a more beautiful boy in the world then you Touch me like im the only woman in the world for you Oh 1x Oh 1x Oh 1x Oh 1x Thanks for the ride Well I finally feel it in my heart Those are my fingers reaching out through the icy cold dark And its hard to be brave its hard to stay sane But they never buried you they just buried all your pain You’re my warrior you’re my fool And you gave it all away when you were playin it so cool But I love you do this day Benjamin I know that your ok
