A Song for Donny

People speak your name
And think what a shame you’re gone
Still they know
What you’ve left behind
Lives in our hearts and minds
Today and tomorrow
The clouds of darkness came your way
You’ve given us a brighter day
And your music will be So very, very special to me Sometimes wealth and fame
Whispered, «Play my game»
But you, yes, you refused to Genius touched your soul
Fortune not your gold
God’s gift is what changed you
A voice like silk would weave your spell
And words of life, oh, only you tell
And your music is gonna be Very, very special to me In life’s fleeting glance
Few have met the chance to give
All they can
And though short you stay
Before you went away with them
Now you stand
Listening to your sounds of joy
I thank one shy, ghetto boy
And your music will always be So very, very special to me Said I love you, Donny
And you’re gonna always be Very, very, very special to me Gonna miss one shy, little ghetto boy
This is a song for you
Said I love you, Donny, and I miss you, Donny
You’re gonna always be a friend to me Miss you, Donny
Yeah, I miss you, Donny
