My friend, you're gone
Someday I hope we meet again

I look unto the left and then I look unto the right
I see your faded figure almost every single night
Is my imagination playing tricks on me?
But in my heart you see, you will always be...

My friend, you're gone
Someday I hope we meet again

You're singin' in a band with a mic on in your hand
That way that you would sing really made me feel all grand
You left your friends alone right upon this earth
I wish you would've seen how much life was worth

My friend, you're gone
Someday I hope we meet again

Yeahhh
I hope we meet again now

Well, Johnny made us laugh but now he made us cry
It couldn't have been that bad to make him want to die
But now it's too late to find your destiny
I wish you would've waited longer here with me

My friend, you're gone
Someday I hope we meet again
My friend you're gone
Someday someday someday now I hope we meet again
I hope we meet again
John my friend hey yeah
I hope pleease yeah I know we'll meet again yeahhhh
I'm missing you my friend I hope we meet again
I'm missing you my friend I hope we meet again
Well I'm missing you my friend well, I hope we meet again
Well I'm missing you my friend well, I hope we meet again
I'm missing you yeah hey I hope we meet again

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
