Tomás - Little Old Man (Song for Alex)

Hey, Little Old Man Hey little old man, what will you be doing today? Giving-sound-advice to your family? Chasing all the ghosts away? Hey, little old man, what will you be doing today? Playing with his ‘meow meow’ cat? Dreaming of a better way? You’ll believe in honesty No room for complacency Taking chances on your own Making sure your thoughts are known Little old man … Hey, little old man Hey little old man, what do we know of you? Never would you have to say You weren’t all you’d be that day Hey little old man, where did your smile go? Never thought your wanderin’ ways Would be the thing taking you away … You believed in honesty You became the energy Taking chances on your own Making sure your thoughts were known You believed in melody Tied to you so lyrically Now that wings can lift you high Where did you decide to fly Little Old Man Hey, Little Old Man Hey, Hey, Alex … Hey, Little Old Man Hey, Hey Alex … Hey, Alex … Music/Lyrics by Tomás Music/Guitar by kiltimaghlad (Written for my beautiful son, Alex, who passed away Jan. 12, 2018. When he was younger he was an old soul. We called him our 'little old man' constantly, and he fit that description up until he left us ... I love you Alex. I will always love you, Alex. And, I will miss you every day of my life until I see you again.)
