INSPIRATION

This song is a story that Paul Bushnell told me about at the memorial / wake for Josh. I spent the better part of 6-8 months working on the song because I wanted it to express the legacy I received from Josh Clayton-Felts heartfelt Soul Centered writing style. I know he can hear it. But I wish I could talk to him about it, and hear what he has to say. I miss you Josh.

 


LYRICS

Papa Paulie’s baby India was trying to figure out

Why her friend that she loved so much

would not be coming ‘round again

 

Papa Paulie said to India “He’s in everything you see”

Now she’s waving at Flowers waving @ trees

She’s waving @ nothing or so it seems

She’s waving at the sunrise and she waves as it goes down

Thought she lost her friend to the other side

but his Spirit’s all around

 

Papa Paul, Nicole and India were driving, to the grave

To lay him down, with heavy hearts a laden

India asked to have the window down

 

Papa Paulie rolled it silently

She cast her hands into the breeze

Now she’s waving at Flowers waving @ trees

She’s waving @ nothing or so it seems

She’s waving at the sunrise and she waves as it goes down

Thought she lost her friend to the other side

but his Spirits all around

 

She’s waving Hi Josh, Goodbye Josh

Hello Josh, Don’t go

I’m sad, feel bad

Wanna feel you, everywhere I go

 

Now she’s waving at Flowers waving @ trees

waving @ nothing or so it seems

She’s waving at the sunrise  and she waves as it goes down

Waving @ the 0cean and her heart begins to pound

Because he’s waving, and she’s waving

Thought she lost her  friend to the other side

but his Spirits all around
