Scenario #32 John Butler Trio - Ocean. It has nothing to do with the solo, it just got to me.


So I don't know what this track did to me but it made me write this..
I was listening to it just now...

I remember, every memory.
So clear and loud,
Like it was yesterday,
We were here,
Holding hands,
All of us, just laughing,
And you're all gone.
I still sit here,
For the number of their plates,
And those honks we made fun of,
I miss your voices,
I miss your laughs,
You're all still here,
At 5 in the morning,
At dusk and dawn, rise or sunset.
In every tap of my strings,
I can feel you pushing me,
We've come so far,
We've worked so hard.
I'm still struggling,
Sitting at the top of this hill,
I can see you all, flowing away.
I've tried and I've tried,
I've fallen so hard,
Relying on all of you,
And the notes I play,
They mean the world to me,
You mean the world to me,
And I play you, in the nights,
In winter and in rain.
With your memories in my mind,
I close my eyes,
I pray.
I close my eyes, and I play.

Someday you'll be faraway,
Grown and old,
And I'd never know of your presence,
Find me here, please find me here.
Listen to me, listen to every string.
Follow me, follow your heart.
You'll be here, sitting next to me.
And I'll wait for you.
I'll pray for you.
I'll play forever.
