Lyrics
Precious Red
One day I’ll no longer be here
A streak into the distance
No cry for help
I’ll be gone
Precious Red
Remember love outlasts
All this trivia
The life, the death
The great beyond

I was once like you
Reeling in the wake of loss’s cyclone
Wishing I could hear my father say

“Remember nothing of my fading days
Those are not me
For knowing glances
Inseparable as we are
Best friends forever
That is us now and will always be”

Precious Red
I leave these words for you
To dig out on my parting
To dust off, to know I’m by your side
Don’t become like me
Sifting through my mind for crumbs of comfort
Wishing I could hear my father say

“Remember nothing of my fading days
Those are not me
For knowing glances
Inseparable as we are
Best friends forever
That is us now and will always be”
