No One Can Take Your Place

(c)1998 Lee Westerso All Rights Reserved

I wrote this as a love song, and somehow ended up singing it at a funeral. Talk about a cocoon turning into a dragon...

I was pushed to the limit
Maybe I pushed you there, too
You can hate love when you're in it
Now I don't know what to do

How could I let you go?
I need to touch your face
I need to let you know
No one can take your place

We were both takin' chances
Two ships afraid of the night
Sailin' on into the dances
Waltzin' on into daylight

How could I let you go?
I need to touch your face
I need to let you know
No one can take your place

..."cocoon turning into a dragon"---sounds like another song. Another Great One by you...sorry for your loss, but I'm sure it meant a lot to every one that shared in your loss. 5 stars Buddy!

An odd analogy, I know, but it seemed that way at the time. It sorta still does. I guess I'll put the whole story up top right (more info) with the lyrics. Thank you again, you guys! You're great friends,

Lee
