Lyrics

I don?t believe in heaven or pie up in the sky
But now that you?re dead and gone, I can?t say goodbye
So haunt my every waking hour, haunt my dreams at night
Ring the phone, creak the stair and light the unlit light and

Pity me all day, pity me all day
I am left here all alone,
And you are gone away

I would not be so heartsick now if we had never met
But thinking on your gifts to me, I have no regret
You taught my eyes to see the skies, you taught my ears to hear
You taught my heart to forgive and to live without fear

They say what doesn?t kill you, will surely make you strong
I use that as my mantra, as I try to move along
We?re all made up of cosmic dust from the first initial bang
So ash to ash, and dust to dust, we?ll be joined again

Good arrangement. Great use of the hook. Original content lyrically. my favorite instrumental part was when the Banjo came in.... it helped some to livin up the overall mood of the song.
