Just a song that I wrote for my friend, Sunshine
Well, on this day (the 26th), two months ago, my friend Sunshine moved back to Canada. Thing is, it was two weeks before school ended in her Junior year and she hadn't ever lived in Canada-only her parents had.
Sunshine was the bassist in my group Dramatica, one of my best friends ever, and one of the sweetest, most reliable girls on the planet. She was going into her SENIOR YEAR, when, all of a sudden, her parents decide to just move her away from everything she's ever known and take her up to Canada, so they could be near friends.
Her parents are greedy pigs and have stolen from me a best friend, from Dramatica the best bassist on the planet, and from Florida one of it's sweetest, smartest citizens.
This song is for her...

Pretty China Doll

I remember that day
When you stole my heart away
There was no one I loved more

You were so beautiful
Hair like spun gold
And a heart just as pure

Pretty china doll
In a neat little package
Smiling out at me

So many years we had
Together all the time
We were damn near
Inseperable

(slow down)
A porcelein face
So perfect for me
Eyes bright
And shimmering

Pretty china doll
In a neat little package
Smiling out at me

Suddenly taken from me
Gone is my pretty china doll
Stolen from my eyes
Ripped from my heart

Where have you gone
Pretty little doll?
Far away
Taken from me
By your makers' greed

(a tempo-back to regular tempo)

Pretty china doll
Such a pretty china face
Eyes shining out at me
Taken from your place

Pretty china doll
In a cute little package
Smiling out at me

Pretty china doll
In a cute little package
(slow down considerably)
Gone forever

(end with a lovely little guitar riff and a light rolling on a drum cymbol)
