Brian Hardie     2012

 

Where it began, the girl and the man

is misty now, so long ago

Her father gone, the hurt is all wrong

but maybe you could make it go

and I was a foolish young man

I couldn't see for dreaming

I walk her home but I walk her into your life

 

Music you knew, she waits as you

show me chords that I should use

she is entranced, she learns to dance

half a year so close to you

and I was a foolish young man

my life was lost in freefall

you find the answer, I start to question me

 

So this one's for you Brian Hardie

this one's for letting her go

How would I have managed in this crazy life

I don't know......  without her, I don't know

 

November tears, but soft in her ear

you try to ease a sad goodbye

Her window is dark as you steal the spark

of love that she'd set free to fly

and here comes the foolish young man

playing with a heart in pieces

Almost a lifetime flies before he can say

 

This one's for you Brian Hardie

this one's for letting her go

How would I have managed in this crazy life

I don't know.......  without her, I don't know
