about

This song is an extra song I decided to add to the EP. It is VERY special to me and the Veatch family, as the lyrics were written by Jeff Veatch, the father of the late Justin Veatch, a peer of mine who could be credited with inspiring me and countless other young musicians. This song goes out to Justin. Thank you for being such a key part of my life. Rest In Peace.

Here's a link to a slideshow made of Justin featuring this song: player.vimeo.com/video/84100405

lyrics

He was a young boy taken by song
He learned the craft it didn't take long
His spirit captures his friends and all,
He lead the world, was walking tall

And the music flows as the time goes,
Down the river of song
Though the streams so long,
It's the River of Life and we sing along

And the music flows as the time goes,
Down the river of song
Though the streams so long,
It's the River of Life and we sing along

He was a young boy who rode the wave
Wrote the songs and caught the rave
When all this were said and done
The ride he got was much too strong..

Music flows as the time goes,
Down the river of song
Though the streams so long,
It's the River of Life and we sing along

And the music flows as the time goes,
Down the river of song
Though the streams so long,
It's the River of Life and we sing along

He was a young man taken by song
He learned the craft it didn't take long
His spirit captured his friends and all

And the music flows as the time goes,
Down the river of song
Though the streams so long,
It's the River of Life and we sing along
