A Song For Julie - Alkaline Trio

Here is "A Song For Julie" by Alkaline Trio. This is what Julie(the person who the song is for) says about the song:
"i'm julie. i did the trio website from 1998-2003. the song was written for me summer 2002 when my father passed away from a heart attack. since it was a "present" to me at the time i didn't want everyone in the world getting their hands on it...for some reason it felt less special that way. the trio was nice enough to request that people stop sharing it and amazingly most people listened. i don't mind if people share it now, as long as you take it as a reminder to not take your parents for granted.

erm, and here are the correct lyrics:

got the call, got the call just a couple of days ago
that they took, they went and took one half of your soul
there we were, nearly 1000 miles away when we heard
could hear your tears falling clear as day
we just wished you were okay

there are times, times you'll never forget
in your heart, in your heart you will always live free of regret
because a love, a love like this never dies
it just grows
grows and it strengthens over time
grows stronger with the years of our lives
i was wrong when i said things never work out right
i was wrong to believe that theres no meaning to this life
it's just taken a couple of years
shedding my own tears
to be able to wholeheartedly say to you
we'll never be alone
you'll never be alone
you'll never be alone
you'll never be alone"

Moral of the story: Be grateful for your parents for you never know how long you will have them.

@himynameismatt7 maybe, but truble breathing was about a friend that killed him self when they where in high school

I was wrong when I said things never work out right.

I was wrong to believe that there's no meaning to this life.

It's just taking a couple of years of shedding my own tears,

to be able to wholeheartedly say to you,

You'll never be alone.

It makes me cry.
