"When I Got the News Today"
(Tribute Song LyricsByGerald Logan)
(Verse 1)
When I got the news today
That my best friend passed away
All I could do was sit and cry and pray.
We were best friends since first grade,
He was by my side every day,
So I took his death hard
‘Cause he was more like a brother I made.
(Verse 2)
I still hear his laughter in the wind,
The memories of where we’ve been.
We swore we'd ride this life to the end,
But I guess the Lord had other plans for him.
(Chorus)
So I’ll raise a glass to all we shared,
Every moment, every dare.
I’ll carry your name in the songs I sing,
My brother, my friend, my everything.
Though you're gone, you're still right here,
In my heart, your voice is clear.
I’ll walk this road like we used to do,
But now I walk it remembering you.
(Bridge)
Some say time will heal the pain,
But I still whisper your name.
You were the light in my darkest nights,
My compass, my strength, my guiding light.
(Outro)
So until I see you on Heaven’s shore,
Where friends are lost no more,
I’ll live my life the way we dreamed —
For you, for us, for everything we believed.
Goodbye for now, but not the end...
I'll always remember you,
My brother, my best friend.
