Life can be so great, your friends... family and all the things that make life worth while... then as easliy as they came, they leave us, our hearts sad and broken and only memories to sustain us. I have lost all of my family, most recently my brother, he passed away Nov 19-2011... never again will we share old times and dreams. It is the tone and rhythm of songs like this that makes you realize how sad life can be.
My father passed 4 yrs ago this christmas eve. Willie was his absolute favorite, he got me into willie when i was a little girl and now everytime i hear his voice it brings me a sense of comfort and sadness at the same time as this was the song i played for him at his funeral...
Willie does have a way of making one feel so emotional. Especially with this song. I have never forgotten this , from the very first time I ever heard it. So many years ago. For my dad. rip 1969
Sherry, your comment moved me immensely. I was actually singing the song to my wife when I read your words and I could feel your grief. I only know that Daniel must have loved you so dearly as I only sing this song to my wife because I was unquestionably the luckiest man in the world to have met her. My sincere condolences for your loss.
Willies music has always moved me. There never has been anyone like him and never will be. It will be a sad day in mudville when he leaves this world. Long live Willie!!
@IamSharilynn I hope happiness for you & healing. Looked up this song tonight as my brother taught me this song. Angels surround you & hope they don't stub their toes flying too close to you <3 Long Live Daniel Moreau & "Id rather see you up than see you down"...getting excited to see brother & family tomorrow. Life does go on. Love to you!!
This song reminds me of my wonderful son, Dalt. He left this earth at age 32. He died from a lung disease he'd had his entire life. He was loved by many. He is missed by all who knew him.
Best country star next to Hank Williams.

@IamSharilynn Life deals us such sorrow at times..... I have often wondered if the good times are really worth the sadness and loss that comes after.
