Lyrics

It’s a sunny afternoon, once again you took the lead
It’s a slow walking procession, none of us would dare to leave
For your last goodbye, you’d made it perfectly clear,
You wanted the four of us, Michael, Danny, Sean and me
And from a speaker at the back of the hearse
A familiar crystal voice starts humming
Three words you used to say
As an anthem, like a prayer
Be here now…

Sharing beer and memories, here we are at the Blue Bayou
Different periods, different stories can’t solve the riddle that was you
High school, desert, motel, Wisteria Lane, you were always on the run
Every place you’ve been, every face you cross, Candy you branded them all
And from a speaker at the back of the hearse
A familiar crystal voice starts humming
Three words you used to say
As an anthem, like a prayer

You were tough, you were weak
You were smile, you were tears
You were yang, you were yin
But always you were life, you were real

You said baby don’t look back, there is no truth in the past
But tomorrow will bring nothing, ‘cause tomorrow don’t exist
There is nothing more important than this one and only moment
Keep your mind quiet, lock it up, and at last release your soul
And from a speaker at the back of the hearse
A familiar crystal voice starts humming
Three words you used to say
As an anthem, like a prayer
Be here now…
