Dave Wendelin: Music

• MP3 play whole song, hi-fi (broadband)

This is a special song to my first son Jesse who has moved ahead on his own path, but whose presence I feel and will feel for the rest of my life.

How can you ever let go
Of one who came from your soul
How can you not let it show,
The loss of one that you love
Oh your smile broke through the unhappy days
Your laughter was n'er out of tune
And you never ever gave up the fight
To be strong I learned from you.

To be strong I learned from you
That’s the good in the gift that came with you
To bend with the wind was the picture you drew
To be strong I learned from you.

Now the clouds in the sky have taken you home
And we’re left here all alone
But the tears that we cry will heal the heart
Of a break I thought could never mend.
But oh I’ll miss you Jess for the rest of my life
No that something that will never change
And I pray when its time to take my leave
You’ll be there waiting for me.
