Eu Cred

Eu, eu te mai aºtept

Cred cã nu e drept

Sã-mi ramãna numai amintirea cã ai fost

Eu simt cã tu mereu

Eºti în jurul meu

Gãnd ºi spirit ce ma ocroteºti

Imi dai curaj

Eu cred cã m-asculþi

Eu cred cã nu uiþi

[Hemiotti]

sehr schön!

Billy was a good friend of my father. He lived in Prescott, Az for awhile. They wrote some music together when Billy was in Prescott. Great talent. Did sometime in prison.
