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 {Channel}: The situation's awfully dim Should we up and go with him No way {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 so long 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 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 {Bridge}: Don't think we don't miss you We think about you every day We still love you anyway Cause love don't go away There's still this burning question I got to know, "why" {Chorus}: Wish you well My friend
