Tribute Running gear I bought before Several years hung on the door Since you've gone it's gotten an airing Every Monday night I am wearing I've joined a club, starting slow But need to push it, up the tempo Need to do this, do what I can Be your saviour, your wing man I must show them all that you were important And life without you is abhorrent You were my life, my reason why This isn't right, you weren't supposed to die To get me through, I'll pound the streets Hoping this all consuming pain, it does defeat But I know it won't, like you, it is a drug I was wired to you, I can never unplug All I can hope is to make you proud Raise funds in your memory, I have avowed I'll make them see that you deserved more Your death shall not be in vain, of that I've swore You were a victim of a cancerous disease You didn't deserve it, brought you to your knees You were it's victim like so many others Father, uncle, brother, lover So from now until the day I die I'll honour your memory, forever ratify The life we led, the love on one another we bestowed That living without you cannot ever erode So as I run these races and each penny is raised I know my love for you in my heart will be engraved And all the world will now know it too For its done in your name, in memory of you
