I went to visit my daqughter in Daytona Beach a few years back.I am from a real small town in central NY I had never seen a homeless person until I went to Daytona Beach.It was pretty shocking to see all these homeless people getting ready to go to sleep in front of the stores and shops down near the Beach.Anyways I wrote this song about it.
wrote this song a few minutes after my daughter and her 5 kids moved out of my house.She was supposed to stay with us for 2 weeks it turned into 4 months.
after moving back to the town I grew up in ,I found nothing was the same as I remembered it to be.It is also about a friend of mine that died of cancer back in 1986 that I grew up with
I wrote this song winter 2006,I live in central Ny where it`s cloudy about 90% of the year winter it gets very depressing.This is the first time I`ve done this song since I wrote it so it is pretty rough
