"Did you know that when you stood here by my side, for me it meant the world. And I realize, now more than ever, that your life was worth its weight in gold.
And I know that you’re up there listening, and music always helped you to live. But we’re set apart in two separate worlds now, this song for you is all i have to give.
So take these feathers in your hand, fly away to better lands, just know that you are on our minds. And wherever you may go, I hope you take the journey slow, so that you have time to make the sun shine.
The angels will come down to see you, and weep for the life that is no more. But their tears are not shed for pure sadness, but for the joy that you are not forever gone.
The world was bright all the days that you were in it, our happiness begotten from your smile. Take my hand once more before you leave here, and maybe save the world just one more time.
So take these prayers up to the sky, cast them out into the night, so that they shine so bright. As stars illuminate the dark, and fill the void that’s in our hearts, and the planets fall in line. You’ll make the sun shine. You’ll make the sun shine."
