[04:05.33][02:45.94][01:28.87]It's like a rolling dice in the belly of the blues [04:09.38][02:50.01][01:32.80]And blues never fade away [04:16.25][02:56.89][01:39.77]Hey hey the colors run when the rain falls [04:21.86][03:02.44][01:44.96]But blues never fade away [01:56.68]He shone so bright with a lust for life [02:01.09]Like the Sun King that he was [02:04.96]His passions hung upon his walls and were printed onto cloth [02:13.25]And for reasons I never understood [02:17.91]About the choices made between the bad and good [02:21.65]I've tried to figure out but [02:24.32]The pain never goes away [02:27.59][03:09.31] [03:10.90]And there's marble markers and little white crosses [03:14.72]Along the beaten path [03:18.29]And I've spread their ashes on the wind [03:22.49]And I miss John Lennon's laugh [04:29.91][03:27.54]
