Subject: Lyr Add: SING NO SAD SONGS FOR ME
From: Micca

This is the song I started writing when Rod's illness was first mentioned and completed when he died. that I had the privelage of singing for some of his family on Saturday..
Sing No sad songs for me (For Rod Shearman) Tune White Dress by Swarbrick/ Mc Tell

By Micca

Sing no sad songs for me Shed You no tears
Its not what I would want If I were here
But say rude poems aloud Drink pots of Beer
Sing no sad songs for me Shed you no tears

Chorus

Sing no sad songs for me
Live like tomorrow
Will Never be

Sing No sad songs for me Shed you no tears
But Chat the girls for me Admire their rears
smile at a homely girl make her feel great
and Gather daisies before its too late

Live every moment as if It is your last
Love now and laugh much Life is a blast
Reach out and touch the sky Feel now the rain
You pass this way just once And never again.

Chorus

Time is a fleeting And swiftly goes
Favouring no one As a river flows
No time for regretting Don't be so dull
Grab you the moment live it to the full

When you are in the earth There's time to rest
Too much regretting Brings pains in your chest
Carpe Diem is our watch cry
We will be sensible By and bye

Chorus

Raise up no stones for me Carve not my name
Scatter my ashes Where I played the game
Here on a footpath Where My friends go
Spilling a drink for me Lying here below

Chorus

Sing no sad songs for me Shed You no tears
Its not what I would want If I were here
But sing my songs aloud Drink pots of Beer
but no sad songs for me Shed you no tears
Chorus

Thanks for posting the words, Micca. Your song was a lovely contribution to the weekend, and a fine tribute to Rod.
