Tommy

I write this song,

Now that you’re gone.

 

Growing up in South Beach,

Nothing seemed out of reach.

Baseball, surf and music,

Especially music.

 

Tommy

I write this song,

Now that you’re gone.

 

I was sixteen with no plan,

What to do as a man?

You can write songs my friend,

You inspired me and my pen.

 

Tommy

I write this song,

Now that you’re gone.

​

My candle you did light,

Encouraging me to write.

Your words I remember still,

They led me to Nashville.

 

You sang and played guitar,

Dreamt of being a star.

Your candle is now out,

True friend and music man, no doubt.

 

Tommy

I write this song 

Now that you’re gone.

 

I’ll miss you my friend.
