Brian

There's only one way to go and that's forwards
And now you're standing at the bar
Your skin puckered like an orange
As a child I held you in my fingertips
And now you're singing in a church
Bursting with whispers

You know when you miss someone
You know when you miss someone
You know when you miss someone

I miss your eyes, your hands, your soft beer belly
Miss the crazy stories you'd always tell me
I miss you, man
Where you've gone nobody will say

What your teachers want is to make you feel small
What your teachers want is to put you in jail
Your gurus, your priests
They're gonna cut you off at the knees
And make you work, work, work, work, work
They want to make you work, work, work, work, work
They're gonna make you work, work, work, work, work
And I miss you, man

'Cause you know when you miss someone
You know when you miss someone
You know when you miss someone

I miss your eyes, your hands, your soft beer belly
Miss the crazy stories you'd always tell me
I miss you, man
Where you've gone nobody will tell me

You know when you miss someone
You know when you miss someone
You know when you miss someone
