We Remember You Well by Buddy MacDonald.

Isolation Video 47 We Remember You Well by Buddy MacDonald recorded by Stephen Mendel on May 2, 2020 I had been shying away from some songs as I thought they might be too sad but then I realized that these times certainly have sadness within. This song was and is for the people of Nova Scotia because they had an extra helping of sadness around this time a year ago. "We Remember You Well" by Buddy MacDonald. For the living and our friends who have left us. Gone but not forgotten. North-west wind blowing outside like a song, Inside here strumming, the rhythm is strong. The wood fire is crackling and the embers are bright, and the memories are flowing like fine wine tonight. Old times are gone times and new times are here, we cannot live on through our full lives in fear. Of old age or whatever the future might hold, we're just growing up boys, we're not growing old. We remember you well, a few to our children we'll tell. Thank you for picking us up when we fell, go happy you now and farewell. Old friends are leaving like leaves from a tree, on the high winds of life they are blown and set free. From from a world where they've known all the toil love and pain. Of the good years, the lean years, it all seems the same. We can't help but feel sad for the good ones who've gone. Grandfathers, fathers, the fiddlers, and sons. They've all left us something in the tales that they told, memories they gave us and left us to hold. We remember you well, a few to our children we'll tell. Thank you for picking us up when we fell, go happy you now and farewell.
