LYRICS AND MUSIC BY PETE McNEILL
Today it's cold and wet outside and snow is on the ground
and people cover up their bodies like plants cover the soil
But now no plants are growing they are sleeping like your flesh
but your memory is awakened in the thoughts of those who knew you
and though you lie a restin we won't forget your name
And you left so many Why did you leave us? what's the score?
And what is it that's taken you away from here? What did you die for?
I close the shades and flip the lights and lie on my bed
I say now why am I thinking about plants that do not grow
I did not know you well my friend but that don't matter now
because I'll never get to know you you left while just a lad
And you left so many Why did you leave us? what's the score?
And what is it that's taken you away from here? What did you die for?
I did not know you well my friend but that don't matter now
Because I'll never get to know you you left while just a lad
Oh yes I'll never get to know you and thats whats really sad
