about

This is a fun little number, celebrating the dichotomy (& calendar space) between grief (All Saints Day) & joy (Thanksgiving). Probably (hopefully?) worth 3:30 of your time.

lyrics

v1:
What a year, what a year it was
But hovering near, the Patron Saint of all lost causes
All the Saints, and all the blessed lost souls
Got no complaints, 'cause one day we might all be made whole

ch:
Should I be grateful when I'm clearly grieving?
Can't turn my eye to the joys that I have been receiving

v2:
What's that you say? That I should feel contended?
We drift away, far away from our resentment
We sing our songs and pray for better days
What if we're wrong? We've been before, in many ways

ch:
Should I be grateful when I'm clearly grieving?
Can't turn my eye to the joys that I have been receiving
-----
And here's one more thing, while we're stuck in this mess
You wish it away, but there ain't no reason to forget this

br:
We sign our names and we're using the same pen
Assigning blame ain't right, when you're talkin' 'bout a friend
Take time to laugh & sing, 'cause everything will end

-- gtr solo --

v1.5:
What a year, what a year it was
But hovering near, all the Saints & blessed lost souls

ch:
Should I be grateful when I'm clearly grieving?
Can't turn my eye to the joys that I have been receiving
-----
And here's one more thing, while we're stuck in this mess
You wish it away, but there ain't no reason to forget this
