Going to write and rewrite this one kleinbl00.

I should mention that all seems well health wise and that I hope to not have need for this song for many years to come.

This was inspired by a briandmyers post from long ago:

Here is the first draft of the lyrics:

My first thought is to apologize

For being distant

For thinking so much of myself

When it was you that really made me

And then my thoughts turn to gratitude

For loving me even though

I resisted it at times

And all the wasted time's forgiven

When I remember the looks you gave me

The moments we exchanged

Those moments last forever

Those moments build upon each other

I'm no more but so much more

Is left where I once took breath

And because I ever breathed

The little ones left in my wake

Will sing the songs that I once sang

Sing

I am alive and because of this I know I need to love

I am alive and because of this I know I'll some day die

But before that day, let me love you, let me try

My last thought is towards my children

Your perfection is warm and golden

The greatest thing I've made

The thing that holds my greatest praise please

Sing

I am alive and because of this I know I need to love

I am alive and because of this I know I need to die

But before that day, let me love you, let me try

One more time

I am alive and because of this I know I need to love

I am alive and because of this I know I need to die

But before that day, let me love you, let me try

By the way, the Feelers song Brian mentioned in that thread is really good. Listening to the rest of the album now.
