Mark Of The Beast!, a tribute to Mark Ryden by Dave MacDowell. 12 x 24 Acrylic on Canvas. © 2011 Dave MacDowell.
I’ve been so many places
In my life and time
I’ve sung a lot of songs
I’ve made some bad rhyme
I’ve acted all my life in stages
With ten thousand people watching
But we’re alone now and
I’m singing this song for you
I know your image of me
Is what I hope to be
I’ve treated you unkindly
Can’t you see
There’s no one more important to me
So darlin’ won’t you please see through me
Cause we’re alone now and
I’m singing this song for you
You taught me precious secrets
Of the truth withholding nothing
You came out in front, well baby I was hiding
But now I’m so much better
And if my words don’t come together
Listen to the melody
Cause my love is in there hiding
I love you in a place
Where there’s no space or time
I love you for my life
Cause you were the boy next door and a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember remember remember…
When we were together
And I was singing this song for you
We were alone and
I was singing this song for you
