TOMMY

by Christopher Faust

I wanted to ask you
How's it going?
You always seemed to be the kind of guy
Knows which way the wind is blowing

So, I went to ask you
Drinking coffee with the pack
But like wind, you were gone again
And I still expect you back

Now you're parked in Valhalla
Was your ship towed away?
Complain to the angels
They’ve got all day

Surfing with the saints
On a sea of blue clouds
Hang ten until tomorrow
I hear you laughing out loud

Not that we were such close friends
Didn’t matter anyway
Just came to depend upon each other as a reminder
Of what gets us through each day

Swapping bs in some basement
Trading tales and battle scars
How we quit the bars, drive a rocket car
To a place out in the stars

Now you're parked in Valhalla,
Was your ship towed away?
Complain to the angels
They’ve got all day

Surfing with the saints
On a sea of blue clouds
Hang ten until tomorrow
I hear you laughing out loud
I hear you laughing out loud
I hear you laughing now
