Dc Talk My Friend (so Long)
I heard your record on the telephone It was my cousin, Joan She picked it up from the top 40 rack and then I read your interview in Rolling Stone You threw the boys a bone And so I genuinely felt obliged to call I know You never meant to hurt us, man We're just a baby band You found a quicker way To scale the wall of fame The situation's awfully dim Should we up and go with him? No way [no way, 1, 2, 3, 4] (chorus) We know exactly where you are, and you're gone [my friend] Don't know exactly where you're coming from You've gone away my friend We know exactly where you are, and you're gone [my friend] Don't know exactly where you're coming from Have you gone astray [gone] I saw your video on VH-1 Looks like they spent a ton How does it feel to be the flavor for a spell And I remember when you used to say "Jesus is the way" I never thought I'd see your light begin to fade The situation's awfully dim Should we up and go with him? No way [no way, 1, 2, 3, 4] (repeat chorus) (bridge) Don't think we don't miss you [We think about you every day] We still love you anyway [Love don't go away] There's still this burning question [I got to know] Why? [What will people think when they Hear that I'm a Jesus freak?] Ah, ah, ah [hey] [While this is something of fantasy] [The moral of the story is] [To stick with your friends] Ah, ah, ah, ah [hey] Ah, ah, ah, [hey] Ah, ah, ah [hey, hey, 1, 2, 3, 4] (repeat chorus) Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, and you're gone [my friend] Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, so long You've gone away, my friend Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, and you're gone [my friend] Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, so long We'll see you someday Wish you well Na, na, na, na, na, my friend © 1998 Achtober Songs/Out of Twisted Roots Music/Blind Thief Publishing/MCA Music Publishing, a division of Universal Studios, Inc./Beefpuppet Music/IRS Songs/Rutis Music.
