A Song For Amy Ross

(album: Leuven Letters - 2014)

I remember you at The Grand Saloon, laughing with all your friends of the town
When the sun had set, there was a quietness
You said the music is what kept you around
Well, there ain't no music now
Only the echo of your last sound

Oh Amy, you were an angel even before death took you down
I can still hear you singing for all the folks down in Bisbee town
Oh Amy, if only they could all hear you now

I won't ever forget those adobe steps that led me up to your door
When the sun it rose, it cast a shadow
Outlined your pretty shape on the floor
But I can't see your shadow anymore
So tell me, what is this sunrise for?

Oh Amy, you were an angel even before death took you down
I can still hear you singing for all the folks down in Bisbee town
Oh Amy, if only they could all hear you now
