Story Behind The Song
A story of coping with personal loss with sorrow and ultimately hope
Song Description
"Cello and acoustic guitar make a solemn pair as a gravelly voiced country rocker bemoans with dour music. The sensitivity in the lyrics is mirrored nicely mirrored in a nuanced performance that still has a touch of toughness to it. The guitar's grow like in grunge rock but the cello turns to fiddles as the song turns into a Zac Brown homage." Actual Crowd Review quote

Lyrics
Never
Brother Bicker
Verse 1:
I never got to meet you
I've never even seen you
Except for the visions in my mind
I never got to hold you
I don't even know you
And right now pain is all I seem to find
And when I look inside
All I wanna do is hideaway
You were on your way to me
Gonna make my life complete
But now it seems you've been a bit delayed
Tiny dance in my dreams
Nothing turns out like it seems
Oh how I wish you could have stayed
Prechorus:
And when my life had died
It was you who gave it back to me
Chorus:
Never is a long long time to wait
Heaven is a place that's far away
But forever's going around someday
And that's the day I'll . . . . your face
Wait for me Wait for me
Ooooh Wait for me
Bridge:
Far away but always near
There to lead me through the fears
Angel on my shoulder stay with me
Prechorus:
And when the time is right
I'll be there to say goodnight to you
Chorus:
Never is a long long time to wait
Heaven is a place that's far away
But forever's going around someday
And that's a day I'll finally see your face
Wait for me Wait for me
Ooooh Wait for me
Ooooh Wait for me
Ooooh Wait for me
