This was written in Honor of Greg Cheek, a great friend, great surfer/skateboarder/artist, Father, son and just all around great guy. Greg passed away 2 years ago and his zest for life will never be forgotten. I looked up to him as a waterman and will always feel his spirit when I surf Bob Hall Pier in Corpus Christi, TX. I needed some closure and that is how this song came about. I just hope one other person can use this song to reflect on his true character and receive a feeling of closure just like I have from it. Rest In Peace my friend.
lyrics
Suenos, oh Suenos where have you been?
It’s evident by now, that scars run deeper than skin.
Suenos, oh Suenos where did your mind go?
Did the voices you heard so clearly finally take you down below?
Davey, oh Davey Jones won’t you look after this one?
Uncomfortable on land , but his battle now is done.
Davey, oh Davey Jones won’t you keep his spirit fresh?
Remind us of his conquests on the days when Bob Hall is best
Penny, Oh Penelope Listen to me close.
Your Father was a good man, respected on this coast.
Penny, oh Penelope hold your head up high.
Your Father's always with you dear and he loves to see you smile!!
