You were the storyteller of the family
untied the past, kept it alive
You drew the maps of history through
the winding days of our young lives
But you left this world too early
in the mere autumn of your life
Now we're gathering up the memories
those blue-eyed smiles, always kind advice
Father brother husband teacher
with a deep Beatle-loving rock and roll
And your beloved T-birds and restorations
the last ones white, the other vintage gold
But you left this life too early
in the mere autumn of your life
We thank you for your gift of music
and your amazing voice, so McCartney-like
Your light, your heart and your laughter
these things will bring a peaceful tide
to fill these wells of emptiness
we're all feeling deep inside
And the family, hand in hand, built a bridge that night
to reach the elders on the other side
And as you slipped out through that open window
you met a love far beyond what you ever realized
.......This great love
And you were our hero and a confidant
a safe harbor for the soul
And when you left the heavens opened
and the ancestors were all there to walk you home
Through the window...
On that full pink moon...
They were all there to walk you home ~
