about

A song which was written In mourning but is now a celebration of life. Dedicated to all friends and family who are gone but not forgotten, especially for Pete Gach who was and will forever be, the man that we all knew.

lyrics

Come sit for a minute
and I'll tell you a story
bout the man that we all knew
He's no longer with us
but I'm sure that he's with us
every day and every night

Chorus
Cause he's up there in the stars
a diamond in our hearts
look around you'll see him everywhere
in your memories yeah, yeah

Place a beer on the fence now
and I'm sure that he'll join us
in a toast with all his friends
come gather round people
you don't wanna miss any of this story
bout the man that we all knew

Chorus

Bridge

It's not that he's left us
He's just sailed out to the sunset
just over the horizon out of sight
Just look to the sky now
and pick out that shining star
it's the one he left in our hearts

Chorus

Come sit for a minute
and I'll tell you a story
bout the man that we all knew
