dear god

D: Hey cher. here's a song dedicated to you.
me: stop calling me cher lah. I'm no longer one. What about this song?
D: It's by a hard rock band. But you know, all bands have their soft moments.
me: phew. ok, I'm reading the lyrics now. Hey it seems more like for you leh. What miss her etc.
D: No. Replace all the "her" and "you" with "them" and "they"

*after a while*
me: Thanks D. Now it really says what I'm feeling. You know me. :D
D: That's why I dedicate to you what.

Hey D (yeh, I don't want to give out your full name here for your privacy). I know you might be reading this. Remember you asked me if there were any songs that moved me to tears, and I told you there were only 2 so far?

One is "Fly Away" by Corrinne May, because its accuracy in saying what I feel about my father. The other is "My Little Nephew" by Corrinne May (Again), cause of its accuracy in saying what I feel about seeing you all grow so much.

Now you've found the 3rd song that have moved me to tears. Thank you very much.

PS: I might even modify the lyrics further! Frorm Dear God to Dear Kaks!


Avenged Sevenfold - Dear God

A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find
While I recall all the words you spoke to me
Can't help but wish that I was there
Back where I'd love to be, oh yeah

Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
to hold her when I'm not around,
when I'm much too far away
We all need that person who can be true to you
But I left her when I found her
And now I wish I'd stayed
’Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
I'm missing you again oh no
Once again

There's nothing here for me on this barren road
There's no one here while the city sleeps
and all the shops are closed
Can't help but think of the times I've had with you
Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah

Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
to hold her when I'm not around,
when I'm much too far away
We all need that person who can be true to you
I left her when I found her
And now I wish I'd stayed
’Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
I'm missing you again oh no
Once again

Some search, never finding a way
Before long, they waste away
I found you, something told me to stay
I gave in, to selfish ways
And how I miss someone to hold
when hope begins to fade...

A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find

Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
to hold her when I'm not around,
when I'm much too far away
We all need the person who can be true to you
I left her when I found her
And now I wish I'd stayed
’Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
I'm missing you again oh no
Once again
