lyrics

JOHNNY FLEW
Johnny flew, flew over our heads
and the feathers now I keep
you have gone to a place
you’ve dissolved in the sunset
I will join you one day
but that time is not yet

he buried you as the rain fell
he buried you as the rain fell
fell heavy from his heart
the question in my soul, it will never quiet down
if I could have it undone
if I could have it undone, the question screams, why
but one cannot decide, who gets to live and who gets to die
but one cannot decide, who gets to live and who gets to die

you spoke to me, you stroked my soul
like no one else has done or will
and memories they turn up almost ghostly
and I welcome them, and I welcome them
and I welcome them when they do

that’s how I remember you mostly
a spirit passing, and through me flew
you were in me and I were in you

”I will see you in our next lifetime
when we both are cats”

Johnny flew
Johnny flew
flew away with my heart
flew away with my heart
Johnny flew
Johnny flew
flew away with my heart

and I’m bringing the feathers, they’re ours too keep
