George had written this song in memoriam of his dead brother Fred. It is now a major hit in the wizarding and the muggle world. He spent restless hours putting together these lyrics.
George Weasley- Fred
It's been a long time since I seen you man.
But now you're way up in heaven.
He was my best friend, he was everything
But now I have to deal with restless nights without you…….
Fred radiates his gleaming smile.
Fred told the world he wasn't going to stay for a while.
Fred, why you had to leave?
I thought you promise me
That we'll always be together, how could it be?
It's hard to believe
That you're gone
I remember the jokes we use to play.
Way back in the old days.
We always had trick up our sleeves (oh yeah)
And it's really hard to believe it's only just me.
That has to travel this shallow world by myself.
I'm all alone, no one to listen to the jokes I tell…..
Fred radiates his gleaming smile.
Fred told the world he wasn't going to stay for a while.
Fred, why you had to leave?
I thought you promise me
That we'll always be together, how could it be?
It's hard to believe
That you're gone
Oooh, I'll never forget the funeral.
Mum and Dad were in denial.
Mum said to me "Freddy's not dead."
And she wept and wept on his casket bed.
She felt she was out of her mind.
Ginny waved good-bye tearfully
She holds her Harry and weep,
Dad shakes his head at me.
Says "This
couldn't be happening."
Little Ron was petrified.
He couldn't believe all the things quickly going by.
I stood, thoughts racing in my head
Why had this happened to him, why me instead?
As we all said good-bye
Fred was entering a better place, rather than I.
Fred radiates his gleaming smile
Fred told the world he wasn't going to stay a while…….
Fred makes all of us think of him,
How he turned the easiest frown into a grin.
Why had you go, my dear brother.
I wouldn't trade you for another.
Because you radiate your gleaming smile,
But you told the world you weren't going to stay a while…..
