A Ballad Of Truth

My father shared this song with me when I was a child and I was upset by its beautifully tragic ending. After my eye opening wreck last thursday I needed to borrow my father's car. This was playing when I turned on the car. I was shaken by the accident. I sat there and listened to this song. I lost it. I teared up like I would do when I was a child. If you haven't heard this, perhaps it's a song you can hold in your heart the way I have. I love the last two minutes because the guitar plays on... reminding me life moves on when we are dead and gone.
