COVID Minus Robin
This song is nothing more than a reflection of the actual lonely feeling I had waking up one morning and realizing that we have to get through COVID-19 without our funny uncle Robin to make us laugh and cheer us up.
My musical mentor is Vance Gilbert, who besides being an amazing singer and songwriter, also takes on songwriting students. The parts you like best might be Vance ideas.
And where has Robin Williams gone?
We need him more than ever.
How can we get through such a mess
Without that Robin Williams?
He was the crazy uncle
He made us laugh and cry.
And just now when we need him most
He’s gone without goodbye.
We have to keep on going,
And caring for each other.
When someone strong has up and gone
We all must now be stronger.
No one else is Robin
But lets all be amusing.
So every minute every day
Let playful keep intruding.
Getting someone else to laugh,
Or even just to smile
Encourages the best in us,
Invariably worthwhile.
We have to keep on going,
And caring for each other.
When someone strong has up and gone
We all must now be stronger.
Nobody knows why we are here,
Exactly whats our purpose,
But making someone laugh out loud
That’s just never worthless.
And where has Robin Williams gone?
We need him more than ever.
How can we get through such a mess
Without that Robin Williams?
