OUR CITY
Oh my friend
You really were quite out of control
Oh my friend
I guess the years had taken their toll
And I think
You probably weren’t meant to grow old
And I think
These years you had you stole
(But you weren’t ready for that)
Because you thought about courage
And you thought of your mother
Right now we all need some courage
And we need each other
When you asked
Would I be there for New Years Eve?
Well you said
That you needed to be there with me
Now I sit
On a stonewall down in DC
All around
Your friends are feeling like me
(Well we are not ready for this)
And then I thought of Chicago
And the timing and freedom from everything
But our city, it wasn’t Chicago
Our city, is where both learn a little about breathing again
Now The Kingdom and the Cosmic Diner
And when I am walking down 8th Avenue
I’ll be switching from whiskey to vodka and diet
Just so that I can think of you
In daylight, in sunset, in midnight, and in my cups of coffee
I always knew that you would take me for what I am
Well we will kiss today goodbye with sweetness and sorrow
Kiss today goodbye, and point me to tomorrow
And then I thought of the Village
When you told me to get my first tattoo
Well I can still see you, my friend
Walking up 6th avenue
Oh my friend
You really were one of a kind
Oh my friend
Oh my friend
