Just something from the heart .
Story behind the song
A true story of a brother I lost when I was 12.
Lyrics
Dave
Playin' ball with brother Dave
Stubborn me, standing in the way
He swung and he missed, but not my head
Hurt like hell, I thought I was dead
That was my first memory
Always been so clear to me
Left a scar upon my face
A reminder that I can't erase, - no, I don't want to
That was 1955
Brother Dave was so alive
10 years later he left this earth
Leavin' me in a world of hurt
Pick on me, you know he would
He was the only one that could
Many was the kid gone flyin'
When they got caught in the act of tryin', and I wonder
How things might have been
Would I be the same?
Now it's a whole new century
And sometimes it occurs to me
That when it's said "the good die young"
He must've been a helluva good someone
Got no pictures that remain
Just the ones inside my brain
And the scar he left upon my face
Reminds me of my younger days - oh, I remember
Playin' ball with Brother Dave
Still loving it up.Enjoyed the listen.Your S.C.Bro.~(;Yrral Mallik AKA Larry Killam of Facebook group Songwriters;)
