Blues for a Friend Lyrics

I see the smiling faces of my friends from distant past

And memories of places in the Lands I saw them last

They look at me abandoned

So it feels through chilling hue

Will ever I be pardoned for my sins?

I have no clue

Friends leaving me prostrated

Begging Him as they ascend

The entry there is gated

They get in afraid I can't

They left and I am staying

In the cue and wait my turn

Forever we are paying what is due

For being born

Goodbye my Friend I'm saying

Go in peace you made it through

A fighter bravely playing

With the beast as very few

The night is spreading clouds

And the sky is pressing down

The blues in me get out

And I gasp as if I drown

You're leaving me a sentry

Feeling fraught as you ascend

You make it through the entry!

And if not I'll see you friend.
