[00:14.85][02:26.89]We love you John Elliott,
[00:18.02]Wherever you are.
[00:20.74]Now we're singing your song
[00:23.52]Like it's the only one we know,
[00:26.72]Like it's the only time we've ever sung
[00:30.56]The words to anything,
[00:32.80]The way that all words were menat to be sung.
[00:39.88]And you are not the only one.
[00:55.04]We miss you John Elliott,
[00:57.89]Right here and right now,
[01:00.91]And it's easy to cry
[01:03.81]When you're laughin' out loud.
[01:06.60]There are spaces in between the words
[01:10.37]That only you can fill up
[01:12.87]With the oxygen that's leaving
[01:16.00]All our bodies' mouths wide open.
[01:19.89]You are not the only one.
[01:34.62]And it's hard digging trenches,
[01:37.63]And it's hard telling lies,
[01:40.96]And I don't believe that easy
[01:43.56]Is one of the available choices.
[01:46.74]And it's hard to be a family,
[01:49.76]And it's hard to be alone.
[01:53.61]We all know that you don't like
[01:56.55]Talkin' on the phone.
[02:29.84]Wherever you are,
[02:32.79]Which is probably Los Angeles,
[02:35.95]You gotta get out of there.
[02:39.01]'Cause we need your heart on fire
[02:42.07]Like a flame for everyone,
[02:45.30]And I know you don't like similes,
[02:48.52]So here's another one:
[02:51.72]Like all the dead stars shining
[02:54.98]Long after they are gone,
[02:58.16]Like knowing way down deep inside
[03:01.66]That you are not the only one,
[03:14.01]That you are not the only one.
[03:19.10]Ohhhh-ohhh.
