The death of Sarah Harper 
 
Walking down George Street 
Rain pouring down 
Hard to keep on smiling 
When the hearts wearing a frown 
 
Love lies lost 12 years past away 
Never thought we'd get 
To this sad day 
Walking away 
 
Darken clouds getting blacker 
January winds that blow 
Heart fighting with the mind 
But isn't it always so 
 
The death of Sarah Harper 
At least in my head 
The bitter taste of love parting 
Some new era this I'm starting 
 
 
 
Written in my head whilst walking down George Street Tamworth one very cold & wet January day in 2002. One would never knowingly enter into a relationship that you thought would end in 12 years time, and has anyone who has been there will testify ending a relationship after 12 years is no easy thing. When I refer to the death of Sarah Harper I mean as in an emotional sense, I think on this desolate day of days my heart finally realised what my mind had known for a long while, that this love affair with Sarah Harper was finally over forever. A new era was beginning. A very sad and dark day in my life indeed.
