For the Good of the Game Lyrics

The tears are settled now

They're all just ripples in your wake

Your loss has been the cause of so much pain

There's a clear blue sky you're missing

And I’m missing you the same

But not a second that we're missing is in vain

You're too good for this Olde Town

And I told you not to stay

My words are coming back on me today

And if there's purpose in this world

I guess you finally found your place

Well it's all for the good of the game

You're more than just the music to my ears

You're more than all those songs I’ll never hear

Resting with the best of them

With all who have been

You are my friend

Since the clock is still a ticking

I’ll keep sticking to what you say

I know all good things must someday meet their fate

If it's better to burn out than to ever fade away

I guess you know you got your 60 of Fame

Maybe you are Crazy, but your life is not a waste

We'll move along, I sing this song now in your name

The cards still on the table

I’m still stepping up to play

‘Cause it's all for the good of the game

You're more than just the music to my ears

And you're more than all those songs I’ll never hear

Resting with the best of them

With all who have been

You are my friend

You are my friend

From The Taverns to The Docks

There's a big old empty space

No one here could ever take your place

I’ll play a song without you now on this old empty stage

It's all for the good of the game

You're more than just the music to my ears

And you're more than all the songs I’ll never hear

Resting with the best of them

With all who have Ben Trussell

You are my friend
