The one and only

You called your house to say
‘I've stopped for a couple of drinks
Never did any one think
It would be the last time u would talk to your wife

You have three beautiful young kids
Age ranging from 7 to 13
Two boys striving to be just like their dad
And hero to your little girl

110 on a country road late at night
You couldn't have survived
A truck tire in the middle of the road
You couldn't see it, the car flipped.

Your wife is part of fire and rescue
She heard there had been an accident
But never thought u were the one that was dead
She thought u may have stopped to help

That's just the type of guy you were
Always knew how to make anyone laugh
But also knew when to be serious
Always there to give a helping hand

Your best friend had to identify your body
He's the head of the fire brigade
Everyone in the town knows you
and you knew everyone

A prankster in everyone's mind
Stupid things like turning the power out
Pretending it was the Y2K bug
Only thing was it was 10 minutes late

The life of any party
If you weren't there
It just wasn't happening
No party will ever be the same

All we can do is is hope and pray
that god doesn't take another,
another innocent life
from this crewel world

You were up for anything
You were a larrikin
you are loved by many
you will be missed for

RIP SHANE.....this is not about drink driving!!!!!! i don't care if its good or bad it was just to let out my feelings....... don't take pity on me Cos i have lost a friend..... no1 will ever take your place Shane
