I had a strum through this last night and had to stop at one point due to eyes misting over. I think the lyrics are brilliant, and so bloody true.
  Great song TIG

Re: Forever Might Only Be For A While (Sad, but uplifting song)

Thank you.  I wrote it because in the past month I have seen way too many friends, (including a seven year old) succumbing to cancer or other maladies at way too young of an age. I found myself looking at a photo of one of them and I had my guitar in my hands. Just starting writing down some emotions in my head, mostly thinking about how life is so precious.   It kinda came back to that Butch Walker video (21 + Over) I posted earlier where he says go live your life, do your bucket list , now ! 
Anyways, even though I am just a rookie songwriter that can't sing a lick, I am hopeful that even if one person gets the message and does something today or the next that they might not have done, then it was worth the time and effort. 
As far as the misting, I've played it a hundred times, still hard me too bc I think of the people I lost, but then at the end I remember that they would want me not to sit around and mourn , but go live in their place and honor.  Thanks again for the kudos.
