lyrics

I can see you in my minds eye
Biggest smile upon your face
Jumping ‘round just like a mad fly
Over the place
Round the place

Carving form into the substance
Tracing lines across the sky
It’s all you ever really needed
To get by
To get by

So I’ll drink to you my friend
For our friendship never ends
And again we’ll celebrate with
What it takes
What it takes

Got your pictures in the hallway
And your sculptures in the yard
Shadows lurk in every doorway
Where you are
Where you were

And in the end it was so hard
For us all to contemplate
Laying down your tool and raging
At your fate….

So I’ll drink to you my friend
For our friendship never ends
And again we’ll celebrate with
What it takes
What it takes
