Description
This song is about my friend who died on 9/11. Some scumbag flew a plane into his office. Lots of people lost best friends that day; fathers and mothers, brothers and sisters, husbands and wives, sons and daughters... So, it's not just for Jon... it's for all of us and all of them.
Lyrics
Once upon a time I had a star, Cast a warm, shadow upon my heart. We'd talk of times, sang songs that rhymed and drank cold bourbon at the sea... He's gone away, it seems the day, is so much less than it used to be. The phone won't ring, my heart can't sing... You were such a beautiful friend to me. How will I spend my day without someone who gave, A giant piece of their heart to me? How will I proceed? Forced to watch the sun rise, Without him standing next to me! Did you cry or scream? Did you feel any pain? Were you calling out my name? All the things I feel, Seem so unreal... Your were such a beautiful friend to me! I can hear the cries of my brethren, and they're calling out to me! I can see what was taken from them! We've got to take it back, you see? Hope and peace have their place, But there's no room on this face! In the end, can't you see? What a beautiful friend they took... from me?
