"Benjamin"

Rain falls outside
I think the sky must know whats happening tonight
Children born while fathers die
It's the circle of life that we all live in time

We've been friends for a long, long time
So if you can't talk, just cry
And know that we can talk on the other side

It's bitter cold outside
But the sun still shines 'cause we can feel it

I LOVE THAT SONG
do you know the story behind it? i'll tell you anyway cuz i want to. The um..guitarist? i dont even know his name, the older guy. anyway, right after his son Benjamin was born, his dad who was a few floors behind them in the same hospital was diagnosed with cancer and died a few months later. sadddd

Benjamin, you mark the life that was left behind
We see him in your eyes

*tear* i love the name atticus because of that book!
i wanna hear you sing!

Oh my gosh.

The reason I even really started listening to this song is because my friend said, "Can you figure this song out? There has to be a story behind it." I couldn't because I was just going by the lyrics but NOW i KNOW so I can tell her. Thanks so much, that's so sad. I can't even imagine what that day would be like. You are gaining and losing so much at the same time.
