I heard your record on the telephone
It was my cousin Joan
She picked it up from the top 40 rack
And then..
I read your interview in Rolling Stones
You threw the boys a bone
And so I genuinely felt obliged to call
I know you never meant to hurt us, man
We're just a baby band
You found a quicker way
To scale the wall of fame
The situation's awfully dim
Should we go up with him?
No way
Chorus:
We know exactly where you are and you're gone
My friend
Don't know exactly where you're coming from
You've gone away
So long, my friend
We know exactly where you are and you're gone
My friend
Don't know exactly where you're coming from
Have you gone astray
I saw your video on VH1
Looks like they spent a ton
How does it feel to be a flavour for a spell
And I remember when you used to say
"Jesus is the way"
I never thought I'd see your light begin to fade
The situation's awfully dim
Should we go up with him?
No way
Chorus:
Bridge:
Don't think we don't miss you
We think about you every day
We still love you anyway
Cause love don't go away
There's still this burning question
I got to know "why?"
chorus:
Wish you well
My friend
