He was a very special, warm, and gentle person, who put music in the world and spoke in rhyme. And it hurts me that I never really knew him, cause all it would have taken was some time. You know he always seemed to be there when I stumbled, and when mountains got too steep for me to climb. And it tears me up to think I never touched him, cause all it would have taken was some time. Ain't that just the way that life goes down, down, down, down, moving way too fast or much too slow. Getting up, getting high, getting down, getting low, no, no. Well, not getting into someone I should know. Ain't that just the way that life goes down, down, down, down, moving way too fast or much too slow. Getting up, getting high, getting down, getting low, no, no. Well, not getting into someone I should know. Ain't that just, ain't that just. Ain't that just, ain't that just. Ain't that just, ain't that just. Not getting into someone I should know. Now he's in another place and I can't reach him. And I feel as though I'm guilty of a crime. I took all he had to give and gave him nothing. And all he would have taken was some time. Ain't that just the way that life goes down, down, down, down, moving way too fast or much too slow. Getting up, getting high, getting down, getting low, no, no. Well, not getting into someone I should know. Ain't that just the way that life goes down, down, down, down, moving way too fast or much too slow. Getting up, getting high, getting down, getting low, no, no. Well, not getting into someone I should know. Ain't that just, ain't that just. Ain't that just, ain't that just. Ain't that just, ain't that just. Not getting into someone I should know.
