A Tribute To Freddie Mercury

A Tribute To Freddie Mercury What happened? Why did God take you away? Your music soothed so many Brought others to tears Yet everyone danced and sang with you Following your fingers on the piano keys You cast your spell over thousands Your voice was a gift from the gods You took the stage you were blessed And you blessed us with your songs We didn’t know that you were suffering That you were dying You kept your pain a secret so we would not worry You knew we would mourn before your life was over You knew we would cry and not hear your last songs How we miss you since you left Your band continues on Playing the music that you made famous It is not the same You made the music everything that it was You changed music from the day you sang your first note No one will ever give what you gave You gave you life for your fans We knew it and we loved you for it Your goodbye left a void that will never be filled Four word and just for words say what we feel They are strong words that you gave meaning to We hear them when we see you on a video They echo through our ears as we hear your song God Save the Queen and God bless Freddie He will always be royalty in our hearts
