about

This song is a tribute to a dear, long-lost friend Dom Leone of the band Ed's Redeeming Qualities.

lyrics

Dom

It must have been so hard
To leave your old life in Ohio
Quit that engineering job
Dropped your plans to become a lawyer

And you grew your hair out real long

You moved out to that cabin
In the woods of Vermont
To make such beautiful stories
And somehow you picked up the guitar

And wrote the funniest, saddest songs
That I’d ever heard

You got the call from your cousin
To move out to the seacoast
They wanted you to come join the band
They thought you could make a pretty good team

So you packed it all up again
Drove your car toward the water
Got a job at a news shop
And wrote like your pen was possessed

You wrote the funniest, saddest songs
That I’d ever heard

And I know you got so sick
You thought you might keep your long hair
When it fell off in clumps in the shower
Your band, they cut their hair too

I wish there were more bad times to see you through
You sang I wish there were more bad times to see you through
Your songs will just live they will breathe on still I wish…
