Have I just lost a friend?
What is that that I feel?
Am I sad now for me?
Or is it for him?
Open mind, open thought, open speech and a smile
Meeting me, teaching me, teasing me, aye
I've known him so well in a very short while
Perhaps I was wrong, is that why it died?
He needed to talk, to have things by his chords
And I want melodies that can come without words
And also in humor-terms things won't combine
My taste silly for him, his too vulgar for mine
Have I just lost a friend?
What is that that I feel?
Have I lost something real?
Did we have anything?
I was tolerant, swear, for whatever that meant.
But can people agree about each disagreement?
Were the harmonies lost, or never quite there?
Did we ever truly resonate?
