Bravado

 

We swapped back at school
their music on tape
I knew these guys rule
my secret escape
 

A mystical space
that no-one would see
three heroes for life
and dreamers like me

They gave all their heart
for music played live
still had their own chart
and their turn to drive

Retiring from tour
was hard to believe
and decades for sure
they made them feel brief

The genius behind
the lyrics and drums
most brilliant mind
and wizard on toms

A music's white knight
of rare poetry
he just lost his fight
a brave man to be

Though he rode away
from his haunting ghost
and chose here to stay
when fate left him most

As hard as he fought
and stood all his fright
he finally got caught
went into the night

Words and melody
remain in the end
but it feels to me
like I've lost a friend
