Philo (tribute)
by Denver, Colorado's SLIM LIZZY
It was long ago in old Dublin town
He opened ears long taught closed
His memory lingers in our souls
Philo
His band they crossed the water
To all his fans all over
Taken from us way to soon
Philo
The death of Philip lynott
Taken from the living
His songs and words they mean so much
Philo
A man called Philip lived
He was raised to love his old town
And make the music his.
To songs he wrote with tears
To people near and far away
He rocked them trough the years.
A legend never to grow old
He made it on his own
We won’t forget you
Philo
To make his vision live
To break the world wide open
To Irelands most revered
To friends from everywhere
You know we won’t forget you
Your memory we hold dear
At 36 your life’s in bloom
You’ll always be around
We really miss you
Philo
In 1986
Hurt us all so deeply
And made his fans all sick
His time it came to quick
So long my friend from Eire
Happy may you sleep
To people all around the world
His vision rocks us all
We’ll keep on fighting
Philo
