a tribute to my dearest and beloved neighbour Erika, the youngest 83 yo woman ever... life took her away... we could not say good bye so I had to write this song instead !
lyrics
Silence,
In the back yard,
where we used to laugh,
so many times
and now
There’s just an empty house
Kept in the dark,
when comes the night
And now
her happy greetings and her smile are lost for ever
And now, I find it so unfair, being without her, without her care
Caus’ she gone, gone, gone, gone with the wind x4
My friend
we used to spend hours
talking about music art and love
My friend
She was so free and so young despite her 83
My friend
she had the generous heart of a mother, she could love everyone
My friend
with her white and shiny hair, she was so fair, I wished she’d live forever
But she’s gone, gone, gone with the wind x 3
She was
such a beautiful human being
like we’d need many more on earth
My friend,
she got sparkle in her eyes, she could see beauty everywhere
My friend
She was so kind to me
It’s hard to understand
how cruel life turns to be
and I miss her
hope there’s a paradise
that could greet her
Erika, we could not say good bye
And you’re gone, gone gone with the wind …
Gone, love, memories,
gone with the wind… gone…Gone with the wind
