Hey My Friend (To Bill Walsh)

from Whatever Says the Clock by Romain Gutsy

/

lyrics

Hey, my friend! You might have had good reasons
Or none my friend, maybe you were so surprised
To leave it there, leaving me and other sons
Hey, my friend! did you forget to warn?
Hey, my friend! Have you been to all places?
You wanted to see, you wanted to be?
Have you seen it all, for this time? Have you played all your aces?
Goodbye, my friend! Be free!

Nobody knows but you, the travel you did
Nobody knows but you, the travel you’ll do

Hey, my friend! You were the one I trusted
Side by side so many times
Now you’re gone, feeling emptied
I know: you were not in your prime
Hey, my friend! Have you been to all places?
You wanted to see, you wanted to be?
Have you seen it all, for this time? Have you played all your aces?
Goodbye, my friend! Be free!

Nobody knows but you, the travel you did
Nobody knows but you, the travel you’ll do

Hey, my friend! You did so good you know
Maybe that’s why it’s tough
Or maybe that’s how friends go
In our weeping, facing the real stuff
Hey, my friend! Have you been to all places?
You wanted to see, you wanted to be?
Have you seen it all, for this time? Have you played all your aces?
Goodbye, my friend! Be free!

Nobody knows but you, the travel you did
Nobody knows but you, the travel you’ll do

Hey, my friend! There is a pall upon the land
as said Herman for Abraham
But no worry as we stand
Forever for freedom, goddam!
Hey, my friend! Have you been to all places?
You wanted to see, you wanted to be?
Have you seen it all, for this time? Have you played all your aces?
Goodbye, my friend! Be free!

Nobody knows but you, the travel you did
Nobody knows but you, the travel you’ll do
