A melody on an instrumental Scott sent me was amazingly close to one of my earliest songs and I liked the feel of the style Scott chose -my introduction to the cinematic style guitars.
Written for the family of friends who had lost someone dear to them.

A Strangers Prayer
(for Joanna Lilia)

In mountains there`s a lily flower
opens when the snow has gone
under the avalanche love waits
to sing her song

now you`re a snow lily
petals shrouded unseen
let these tears your friends have cried
turn your leaves to green

I would be you friend
down the road I`ll wait around the bend
where stars jewel your hair
I will write a strangers prayer
I will write a strangers prayer

only words we never said hello
I never saw spring in your eyes
what can I give to you
answer your goodbye

to me this life`s a river wild
I drown as I learn
death seems like a music box
with a handle I can`t turn

I would be you friend
down the road I`ll wait around the bend
where stars jewel your hair
I will write a strangers prayer
I will write a strangers prayer
