You didn't wake up before you hit the ground
I didn't stay up long enough to see you falling
You never asked for the world but then
You jumped from the rooftop
Because you had to have the last laugh

Look where you are
Look where you are now
Look where you are
I heard you say
Everyday above ground was a good one

You never see her
Hair in braids and blue eyes
Because we didn't try hard enough
She's still waiting to hear you sing
A song for her

You jumped from the rooftop
She still asks me

Where are you now, Where are you now
Where are you now, I heard you say
Everyday above ground was a good one

I want to live so much that I am going to die
I want to run so fast that I am going to fall
I probably said it once before I apologize
This will be the last time
This will be the last time

Where are you now, Where are you now
Where are you now, I heard you say
Everyday above ground

Where are you now, where are you now
Where are you now, I heard you say
Everyday above ground,
Everyday above ground
Was a good one.

    General CommentThis song is indeed about Blind melon's Original Lead Singer, Shannon Hoon. Its Not commonly Known, But Part of the Song was actually written by Shannon, Though not in "Song Format". When Travis joined the Band They all Started working this song up togethor, and One of the Original 4 Gave Travis a Letter that Shannon Had written. Within that letter was written the Words that would Later Become Lyrics for this song :
    "I want to live so much that I am going to die
    I want to run so fast that I am going to fall"

    Great Song Guys. RIP Shannon...
