The Bluest Eyes In Texas
Michael Pakebusch
January 23, 1975 - January 1, 1994
As some of you have seen, I have written a little tribute to those I have loved that have gone before me. Twelve years ago tonight, I lost a loved one, Michael, who's death has changed my life in more profound ways than I will ever be able to put into words.
In fact, I don't even know where to begin to put into words what the four short months of friendship with Michael meant to me or how much I have hurt over the past twelve years since he left. I know many of his friends are feeling a little sad or saying a little prayer for him tonight.
Saturday morning at 1:05am, January 1, 1994 Michael was killed instantly when his car left the road and hit a utility pole. I found out about his death around 8pm Sunday evening, January 2, 1994 and my life will never be the same.
So, instead of a any measley attempt that I could put together to explain that impact on my life, I am going to just end this post with this and a song.
Michael, I love you and no matter how many years go by, you will always have a special place in my heart.
Restless Heart: Big Dreams (1988) The Bluest Eyes In Texas
The lonesome Texas sun was setting slow
In the rear view mirror I watch it glow
I can still see the wind and her golden hair
I closed my eyes for a moment I'm still there
Chorus:
The bluest eyes in Texas are haunting me tonight
Like the stars that fill the midnight sky
Her memory fills my mind
Where did I go wrong,
Did I wait too long or can I make it right
The bluest eyes in Texas are haunting me to night
Another town another hotel room
Another dream that ended way too soon
Left me lonely Waiting for the dawn
Searching for the strength to carry on
Chorus
For every heart you break you pay the price
I can't forget the tears in her blue eyes
