Not Once But Twice Dead

Doesn't everyone want something 
for you all alone 

That made the hair's on the
back of your neck stand up 

Raises your flesh and gives you
that goosebumps effect 

Easy anything you have ever
experienced before or likely
again to detect 

To bring those feelings you felt come
flooring back you felt at that time

Some of the best moments in your
life you have ever had you never want
to forget 

Because a certain particular individual
you had them with is no longer here to
share them with

If you fail to remember them or worse 
let them fade

It's almost as if as well as they are dead
they have died not only once but twice
and been passed on all over again

So with a heavy heart and this sorrow
in mind

Remember and treasure ever good
time and memory spent with those
special specific individuals 

Who are sadly unfortunately no longer
able to be here in person

To carry on the good times and make
fresh new memories with
