Jonny's Song
Well, I never had a brother but I guess I wanted one, it's true
And I never could have asked for a better little brother than you
When the shit hit the fan you were always the one right there
Lending me a hand and an ear just because you care
Well, I never had a father and it's part of the problem I'd say
But in so many situations it was you always showing me the way
Though I never really listened till long after you dying day
So I never got to tell you how you helped me chase my devils away
Well, I never had a lover, just some users and losers hanging around
And it's funny how you'd always reappear after I'd been let down
Always bending down to pick me up off of the dirty ground
Though you saw me at my worst, you never made a critical sound
Well, I never had a brother, father or a lover
And I never had a friend who was truer than you
And I never failed to fail you every time that I didn't come through
Now I hope your good example is enough to pull me through
The next time I'm feeling lonely and I don't know what to do
The next time that I'm falling and I just want to talk to you
