Thanks to Marlon Richards for the usage of his archives of Anita’s home movies

I wrote this song soon after Anita’s passing. I was still in shock at that loss and I still can’t quite get over the pain of her absence after such a long and unique 54 year friendship.
We lived through Rock 'N’ Roll History, the chaos of our love lives, and we always remained available to each other. I wanted to pay tribute to our exceptional friendship by using footage from our personal archives, memories of a trip we took at the end of the '60s n South America.
I was always in awe of the way Anita lived her life, and now, of the way she left it.
The truth is, you have to accept it, to let go, to go with the flow, and be fortunate enough to be loved and surrounded by the ones you love.
That’s how it went for Anita.
Death can be peaceful, beautiful and filled with grace.
There’s nothing to be all that afraid of.
Let it go.

Lyrics:
Born to live and born to die
Aren't they just the same?
We're always breaking someone's heart
Especially our own
Life goes on its joyful way
As usual nothing's as it seems
But to die a good death is my dream
And I wish it for all, for all I know and love
Deep down below and high above
We're born to die, no one to blame
We're born to love, we're all the same
Blues stay away, stay away from me
I hate to lose old friends
Blues are my enemy, but love gets me through
Born to live and die
Forever loving you
Don't make me cry, know what I must do
Pray for a good death, one for me, one for you
And I wish it for all, for all I know and love
Deep down below and high above
We're born to die, no one to blame
We're born to love, we're all the same
