Michael Lyrics

Michael, where are you now?
Michael, where are you now?

Somehow in my excitement
The last time you called
It slipped again to ask you
From whereabouts
I got a lead from your old triple-ex-girlfriend
She said I heard he lost his mind again
Again I said I didn't know that you ever did

Michael, where are you now?
Michael, where are you now?

Sleeping through the mornings in flannel and hair
Getting high in the Southern air
Surely send the evenings down the unfamiliar
The last to feel the salt water feeling
Skipping the shadows in the dead zone
With the ghost on your side
Of the state's borderline
Of whispering

Take it
Take it
Take it
Take it
Take it

Do you remember our first subway ride?
Our first heavy metal haircut?
Our last swim on the East Coast?
And me with my ridiculous looking pierced nose
I remember your warm smile in the sun
The daydreaming boy without a shirt on
The Birmingham bar-fly father
Left the mother of three sons
You're the oldest juvinile delinquent bum

My best friend
