(In memory of a loving friend and musician to us all)



Here Comes The Sun
By: Noah Eaton
11/30/01

We were walking down Blue Jay Way
It was never too long
It feels like years since it has been here everyday
Then I saw the sun rise when your guitar sung a song

I watch the smiles return to faces, decks of cards shuffle
I want to tell you you’ll forever sing within me
I remember Crème tangerine and montelimat before every Savoy truffle
And I hear your breathe every time your guitar gently weeps

There’s something in the way you sing
Harmony ascends every pluck of your strings
For the farther one travels, the less one knows all so much
Your love is always with me…
Makes me want to stay in my place in the sun
Here comes the sun…

Go, Johnny, go, cherish these sweet blues
We’ll all be trippin’ over your old brown shoe
Sharing all the love you shared with us you knew
For it’ll never be the same when we’re in your queue

It doesn’t matter what chords you play
It doesn’t matter what clothes you wear
We all are children of the sun everyday
There is nothing love can compare

Now take the time, my friends, think for yourself
We all have time to rectify, we’re all in good health
Go where you’re going to, he says to you
Your love is always with us all
Makes us want to stay in our place in the sun

Here’s come the sun…
Sing
Here’s come the sun…
Praise
Here comes the sun…
Dream
Here comes the sun…
Imagine…

Spread your word, share your love
He speaks for us all, lift your hands high
Sing with him, my friends, you can never have enough
Reach your hands to the sky
And stay, stay, stay, stay in your place in the sun
Here comes the sun…
Reach for the sun…
Reach for the sun…

In Memory Of George Harrison

Noah, that is absolutely beauty and love all strung together in sweet harmony. It's hard to even zero in on all the things he meant to me, and I know millions feel the same. George was LOVE. Pure and simple, a high note from God.

Very worthy song, Noah, for a great man who has left us, but hopefully he is standing in a happier place in the sun .

This was so touching and beautiful my dear brother Noah, George did so much to keep the Beatles together back in the 60's, I personally will miss this great friend of mine more than I could ever say, I truly loved him as if he were my own brother! Love, Robert

Indeed he was wonderful, and shall be missed by many. His music touched us all.  Your tribute is just lovely.

This is a lovely tribute Noah. Just goes to show how much he touched the lives of others. We all have memories of him, no matter what age we are.
