When John Passed Away
You told me today what I should have known then
Now that I know, will you leave me again?
I've been travelling around to make time go away
But something just lingers, something just stays
And everyone's talking these days
Like there's something to prove
Though there's nothing to say
Everyone's talking but you
'cause your words don't come cheap
And your thoughts are of use
Remember the time when you & John left the room
You skied on the lake in the light of the moon
Nobody knew until John passed away
But you saw he was sick and you lit up his face
And everyone's wondering these days
If life is a loan
And if love is for sale
Everone's wondering but you
'cause you rip off the tags
And you don't care if it's new
And you don't mind the price
Or the market value
So baby come over, 'cause this time I'm sure
Bet you'll laugh at my jokes like you used to before
I've been trying to stop thinking, but man, it's been hard
If we lower the stakes I might let down my guard
And everyone's talking these days
On how life should be led
And how love should be made
Now, let's leave the talking alone
Fall asleep in my arms
I'll be watching the door
And everyone's talking these days
So let us be quiet
And let us be safe
Let's leave the talking alone
Fall asleep in my arms
I'll be watching the door
And I won't be running away anymor
Now that I know, will you leave me again?
I've been travelling around to make time go away
But something just lingers, something just stays
And everyone's talking these days
Like there's something to prove
Though there's nothing to say
Everyone's talking but you
'cause your words don't come cheap
And your thoughts are of use
Remember the time when you & John left the room
You skied on the lake in the light of the moon
Nobody knew until John passed away
But you saw he was sick and you lit up his face
And everyone's wondering these days
If life is a loan
And if love is for sale
Everone's wondering but you
'cause you rip off the tags
And you don't care if it's new
And you don't mind the price
Or the market value
So baby come over, 'cause this time I'm sure
Bet you'll laugh at my jokes like you used to before
I've been trying to stop thinking, but man, it's been hard
If we lower the stakes I might let down my guard
And everyone's talking these days
On how life should be led
And how love should be made
Now, let's leave the talking alone
Fall asleep in my arms
I'll be watching the door
And everyone's talking these days
So let us be quiet
And let us be safe
Let's leave the talking alone
Fall asleep in my arms
I'll be watching the door
And I won't be running away anymor
