Story behind the song
I´ve lost many good friends over the years and this song just came into my head when I was thinking about how to overcome the grief when you loose someone you love. I wrote it back in 1986 and I had it all the time on a tape with just my guitar and vocal, I recorded it just a few weeks ago at my home-studeo and decited to put it on my page. It's a special one for me.
Lyrics
Grief Holding back the tears I don´t wanna cry Life has been so hard on me I could die and God knows I just had enough can´t go on just feeling this way gotta stop, gotta stop and turn my life around Thinking about the years we had and the times we talked about our love and painful good-bye´s then we made a promise to never leave one another alone until the day, until the day death would do us apart Now the day has come and I´m all alone gotta fight this battle gotta be strong gotta keep on living my life remembering your spirit still remains, remains forever with no doubt

This song can be summarized in one word. "Beautiful"! From the opening Classical thru the sad/compelling story. Svennis Gold!
