about

“Ode To A Friend” is a sentimental tribute to a friend who was taken away way too young. At the same time a celebration to life and friendship. It is a strong indie folk tune with a strong melody and a powerful arrangement.

lyrics

Jon Magnusson - Ode to a friend

Vers:

You were young, you had barely turned fifteen
When they stuck you underground
You took you're voice and buried it within
Oh how I miss that sound

Ref:

And it was cold, when they took you
You were supposed to get old, just like us
I never told you, you never heard, what a friend you were

Vers:

The girl who rose the lust inside your soul
Now she is crying infront of me
Her tears are falling softly on the floor
While she's asking you for peace

Ref:

Vers:

I can still remember knocking on your door
Just to say goodbye my friend
Your father took my hand and shook his head
You had already gone away
