Story Behind The Song

While Bruce was undergoing his rejuvenation beyond the deadly pharmaceuticals, Anthony died of bad medicine due to his state of impoverishment and physician's negligence.

Song Description

Bruce composed and performed this country piano ballad at his beloved friend Anthony's funeral. In progress, lyrics only. Music is just a place holder.

Lyrics

My friend you're passing through the gate now,
Was bitter 'til the end,
But they will come to hear your voice now,
As the angels start to sing this lullaby,

You didn't stand the slightest chance once,
The world had turned its back on you,
But you gave everyone your reply,
All that matters in the end is purely love,

Chorus:

Tony look how all the horses call your name,
While the story on this earth remains the same,
All the money in the world won't buy them love,
Won't buy them love,

Tony when we're through they all will know the truth,
All the greed and lies that bind and steal their youth,
Well you're just the prime example I can see,
Return to me return to me,

You're the one that came to set us free here in the night,
You're the one that came to set us free,
-
The ranch was paradise you found it,
The spring returns eternal youth,
You know my friend we never doubted,
That the summer days would come our vision true,

You gave your life to end this journey,
The healing at the water's edge,
We'll always look upon the trees here,
See your face to help relinquish all our fear,

Chorus:

You're the one that came to set us free,
