SONG - Days (for Jeff Buckley)
 
Feedback please!

Two years, three months and ten days
Your life was stolen away
Until mine, you just couldn't wait
No, my love could never stay
Underwater
Did you find her?
That Grace of yours
I hope it's calm in that water
And I'll see you on the other side
Oh two years, three months and ten days
My heart still breaks
Because the river that stole your oxygen
Wasn't as beautiful as you
All that time
Just waiting for the crowds to settle down
Hereditary, don't you see?
You were doomed never to speak with me
Not that you'd mind, not that you mind
Underwater
Did you find her?
That Grace of yours
I hope it's calm in that water
Cos I miss you
Doesn't make any sense
You were an angel
The world was sad to see you go
Does it make sense?
Missing you still
But two years, three months and ten days
Seemed like hardly any time at all
No time to recover
And no time to breathe
Underwater
Did you find her?
That Grace of yours
I hope it's calm in that water
And I'll see you on the other side
Two years, three months and ten days
Was the space between us
Lights have gone out
But I'll see you on the other side.

Hi there. Mostly, in tribute songwriting, you'll not find a letter to someone specific, as it will not connect anyone to the song. Jeff Buckley is one of my favorite musicians, and yet, I can't connect to those lyrics, as it talks about a specific person. "That Grace of yours", why would you mention a song he has made? A few nicely made songs were given as a tribute to Jeff Buckley, I suggest you to review them and their lyrics - maybe it will somehow change your mind. ;)

I like it. Jeff was an angel. One of a kind talent.
