Ballad Of Sean Delaney by Smith, Jackson Lyrics
[Intro]
Well, hello, you've reached Sean Delaney, but I'm not around
So please, leave me your name
Your telephone number, the time you called
And I'll get back to you just as soon as I can
Yahoo
[Verse 1]
Well, he came in like a hurricane
Up in Utah one cold night
He walked into our hotel room
And he stood there for a while
He said, "My name is Sean Delaney
Glad to meet you," then he smilеd
As your stories were unfoldеd
We drank whiskey through the night
Well, rock and roll and country
Was the laughter he had lead
Fingers burnin', lessons learned
Were the sermons that he read
We got on like a house on fire
And he promised us that night
He would make it back to England
And put our name in lights
[Chorus]
Sean D, we're gonna miss you
Everything that you stood for
You were troubled all your childhood days
You told us that's what made you strong
Sean D, we're gonna miss you
And so from each and every one
May God look into your smilin' eyes
And wrap you in His arms
And wrap you in His arms
[Verse 2]
Well, he took all of his money
And six months off his time
To get us on the open road
And reaching for the skies
But he was running out of runway
Because his past was catching up
As God reached down from that big blue sky
He gave a smile with both thumbs up
[Chorus]
Sean D, we're gonna miss you
Everything that you stood for
You were troubled all your childhood days
You told us that's what made you strong
Sean D, we're gonna miss you
So from each and every one
May God look into your smilin' eyes
And wrap you in His arms
And wrap you in His arms
[Post-Chorus]
Woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah
Woah
[Verse 3]
You came into this world with nothing
And you leave it just the same
But you left us with the memories
Of a man who lived with fame
So when you're hangin' 'round in Heaven
Let your light shine down on me
Though you touched the hearts of everyone
I really miss you now, Sean D
[Chorus]
Sean D, we're gonna miss you
Everything that you stood for
You were troubled all your childhood days
You told us that's what made you strong
Sean D, we're gonna miss you
And so from each and every one
May God look into your smilin' eyes
And wrap you in His arms
And wrap you in His arms
[Outro]
And wrap you in His arms
Wrap you in His arms
Well, hello, you've reached Sean Delaney, but I'm not around
So please, leave me your name
Your telephone number, the time you called
And I'll get back to you just as soon as I can
