For Eric

They say only the good leave first
I never thought it would be me saying goodbye
Shooting stars affect us with their beauty
Your light infected us all

I adored your smile
A true reflection of your heart
Misunderstood in a world of pain
Brought forth in agony
But made perfect in death

I never saw it coming
I never thought I would be saying
Goodbye to an angel
How do these things happen?
A fast car, a young heart, a song
To be remembered by
My eternal treasure

You were the best of me
I would’ve traded places any day
So sorry my boy
Couldn’t save you
Time brought its friend, and no one Escapes

I never saw it coming
I never thought I would be saying Goodbye to an angel
How do these things happen?
A fast car, a young heart, a song
To be remembered by
My eternal treasure

Soon my boy
Nothing will stop us
We will be glorious again
Together
Shooting stars
My love
