Ode to Lance
One more year has gone by without you
Two groups of five slashes, plus two times two
Marked notches on the wall
Equal the years without your call
You visit me in dreams
So alive it seems
But when I awake
It all seems so fake,
As memories fade into the night
I watch as you pass through the light
It is the visions of you by my side
The reasons I have cried
Since you passed on
Like something gone terribly wrong
A good friend who is missing
Has left me wishing
For times since gone
I am left to be strong
One more year has gone by without you
Two groups of five slashes, plus two times two
Marked notches on the wall
Equal the years without your call
You visit me in dreams
So alive it seems
But when I awake
It all seems so fake,
As memories fade into the night
I watch as you pass through the light
It is the visions of you by my side
The reasons I have cried
Since you passed on
Like something gone terribly wrong
A good friend who is missing
Has left me wishing
For times since gone
I am left to be strong
One more year has gone by without you
