Nothing in Return

He was just a good guy
Looking for a blue sky
Hoping that love one day
For him would be coming his way

He was just a good guy
Does he need a reason why?
To wish for something true
Something he never knew

This is the happy moment of the song
Sadly this melody never lasts for long

He’s been giving • He’s been aching
What has he earned? • What did he learn?
He’s been giving • Without receiving
What did he learn? • That you get nothing in return

He was just a good man
Doing everything he can
So that love one day
From him would stop running away

He was one of the few
Always there for you
Hoping that love one day
For him would stop and stay

This is the happy moment of the song
But like for him and her it won’t last for long

He’s been giving • He’s been aching
What has he earned? • What did he learn?
He’s been giving • Without receiving
What did he learn? • That you get nothing in return

Don’t make him bitter, don’t make him suffer
He would give everything, he’s never expecting

This is the happy moment of the song
Oh listen carefully ‘cause it won’t last for long

He’s been giving • He’s been aching
What has he earned? • What did he learn?
He’s been giving • Without receiving
What did he learn? • That you get…
That you get… • That he got…
Nothing in return

This song is for Sly.

We see Sly as an extremely generous guy in many different ways. Always giving without expecting anything in return. For us this song illustrates who he is and what some of his past personal relationships made him go through.

He is on a better road now. We hope to witness his most profound hopes and dreams coming true. He sure deserves it. This is why this song is dedicated to our friend (and T•D•I bass player) Sly.
