Intro:
(Instrumental)
Verse 1:
In a small town where the river bends,
Lived a man named McAllister ‘mongst his friends.
A life so rich with tales untold,
But every story must be unfold.
Chorus:
Oh McAllister, your time has come,
The bell tolls for you, the journey begun.
In the whispers of the wind, we hear your name,
Through the valley of shadows, you'll remain.
Verse 2:
He walked the path that few would dare,
With a heart so brave, beyond compare.
In every smile, in every tear,
His spirit lingers, ever dear.
Chorus:
Oh McAllister, your time has come,
The bell tolls for you, the journey begun.
In the whispers of the wind, we hear your name,
Through the valley of shadows, you'll remain.
Bridge:
Now the skies grow grey, the silence deep,
The stars bear witness as we weep.
But in the night, a guiding light,
Your memory shines ever bright.
Chorus:
Oh McAllister, your time has come,
The bell tolls for you, the journey begun.
In the whispers of the wind, we hear your name,
Through the valley of shadows, you'll remain.
Outro:
Farewell, dear friend, until we meet,
In fields where pain and joy compete.
In the echoes of time, your song shall stay,
For McAllister, we'll find our way.
