My Friend John lyrics - The 88

My friend John

He's passed on

Far away

Or so they say

Remember driving by the house on the sea

And you were quiet in the back of my car

Headed to hear about how bad it could be

Now I'm alive and I can't find the door

Do you have what you had

With you anymore

My friend John

My friend Keith

Went to sleep

He's gone away

Or so they say

Remember walking through the flowers in the yard

And I was trying not to forget to breathe

And we were swallowed by the mouth of the stars

Now I'm alive and I'm stuck on the stage

And you're a voice in a dream

From a different age

My friend Keith

Remember walking through the flowers in the yard

And I was trying not to flinch when I breathe

And we were swallowed by the mouth of the stars

Now I'm alive and I'm stuck on the stage

And you're a voice in a dream

In a different age

My friend John
