Cry no tears for me

Aa Harvey

Cry no tears for me

 

 

The famous singer walks alone,

Through half-remembered good times,

Through a library of songs

And all she can see at the end of the road,

Is a life without regrets

And a story told.

        To have had such a life. At the end a jazz funeral.

        • Augustus

          Sorry about the Jazz. In New Orleans the jazz funerals are common. Sort of in the same vein as "Don't cry for me.", I had a good life and we can celebrate that is what the Jazz theme suggested. I meant no disrespect.

            I did not feel disrespected by the comment. I just thought you meant you liked listening to Jazz music.
            I listen to rock music, reggae, rap, pop, eighties music and many other kinds of music. I don't listen to a lot of dance music or jazz music.
            Everyone's taste in music is their own.

            I'm in England, and I don't know enough about Jazz music, or the funerals they have in New Orleans to comment, but I think people should celebrate someone's life when they go.

            At my funeral I want them to play
            'Queen - Who wants to live forever?'
