You were one of so few, I looked up to you
You taught me so much for so long, I wish you knew
Our thoughts and feels, ideas and ideals
Now echoed words and distant song, it doesn't feel real
Now that you're gone
You leave with us all your works of art
Your legend will live on
Echoed in the beat of our hearts
Your highs and your lows, your joys and your woes
You expressed them all so beautifully, in poetry and prose
Your words resonate, the pictures they create
It often felt they were for me, we all can relate
Now that you're gone
You leave with us all your works of art
Your legend will live on
Echoed in the beat of our hearts
Lost in the reveries, of those complexities
You gave your all right from the start, seemingly with ease
Your dedication and inspiration
We'll play it loud and make you proud, for generations
Now that you're gone
You leave with us all your works of art
Your legend will live on
Forever closer to the heart
