Recorded a year before the others, this song was used on a benefit CD and other places. Its sort of a goodbye to my daughter
lyrics
This is my last song
I swear it wont take too long
I need you to be strong, for me
If you could just hold my hand
And tell me you understand
This isn't how I had planned, to leave
If I don't see you in the morning
Please don't worry
If I don't see you ever again
Don't you cry for me
Its time that I am free, finally
I was the crazy boy
Always so full of joy
Making a great big noise
Its true
When I first saw your face
Everything fell in place
I was in outer space
For you
If I never again hold you
Im so sorry
I know I should have told you
Didnt want you to cry for me
Its time that I am free, finally
I never loved in moderation
(So many tears I have cried)
Ive always followed my heart
(I tried and tried and tried)
I only wanted to be with you
(Aaaaahhhhhhhhhh)
but I never knew where to start
(Start right now, start right now)
I never dreamed I'd be this lonely
(I never dreamed this at all)
I'm going out of my mind
(You've got to hold on for me)
You never know whats important until
(Aaaahhhhhhhhhhh)
You find yourself all out of time
(You've got time, you've still got time)
I'm tired of hearing how strong I am
(I just want to help)
Sometimes I cry all day
(Hush now baby, hush now baby)
We only get this one life so
(Aaaahhhhhhhhhhhh)
Don't you let it get away
(You've got to got to got to)
I never loved in moderation
(So many tears I have cried)
Ive always followed my heart
(I tried and tried and tried)
I only wanted to be with you
(Aaaaahhhhhhhhhh)
but I never knew where to start
(Start right now, start right now)
I just never knew where to start...
