Well I heard the news
And it knocked me down cold
Never in a million years
Not with crystal ball foretold
I'm wandering dumbstruck
As the memories flood in
Inundating my heart
I'm riding high then drowning
Blue - was the color of your eyes
Now it's the color of a long goodbye
The blue that runs into the cracks
Hard to believe you're never coming back
May your memory never fade
Keep on turning towards those better days
And if there's anyone waiting at the end
I hope that you're there my lovely friend
All this time you had been there
I turn and then you're gone
Unreality creeps in
Sun will set, return with dawn
I'm a thousand miles away
Couldn't have reached you so it seems
We're eternity apart
Chasm between life and dream
The words come now but thin and cheap
Something to fill the emptiness
Something was off when last I saw you
Wish I'd really known how serious
But mustn't dwell on last rough years
Whenever we regale your story
You were a man so full of life
Return you to those days of glory
Blue - was the color of your eyes
Now it's the color of a long goodbye
The blue that runs into the cracks
Hard to believe you're never coming back
May your memory never fade
Keep on turning towards those better days
And if there's anyone waiting at the end
I hope that you're there my lovely friend
