Once upon a time |
|
Not so long ago |
|
People used to stand and stare |
|
At the spider with the platinum hair |
|
They thought you were immortal |
|
We had our ups and downs |
|
Like brothers often do |
|
But i was there for him |
|
He was always there for me |
|
And we were there for you |
|
How can i put into words |
|
What my heart feels? |
|
It's the deepest thing |
|
When somebody you love dies |
|
I just wanted |
|
To give something back to you |
|
Gift to gift |
|
Michael, michael picasso good night |
|
You used to love our house |
|
You said it was relaxing |
|
Now i walk in the places you walk |
|
I talk in all the spaces you talk |
|
It still hasn't sunk in |
|
Are the words real |
|
That come into my head |
|
On a morning walk? |
|
Do the shadows |
|
Play tricks with my mind? |
|
For it feels like |
|
Nothing has changed |
|
But i know it has |
|
Michael, michael picasso |
|
Good night |
|
Heal me |
|
Won't you |
|
Heal me? |
|
Nothing lasts forever |
|
Set me free |
|
Heal me |
|
Won't you |
|
Heal me? |
|
I'm the one who's left here |
|
Heal me |
|
Heal me |
|
Heal me |
|
You turned into a ghost |
|
Surrounded by your pain |
|
And the thing that i liked the least |
|
Was sitting 'round hasker street |
|
Lying about the future |
|
And we all sit |
|
In a room full of tears |
|
On a windy day |
|
And i looked out |
|
But none of these words seem right |
|
I just wanted |
|
To give something back to you |
|
Gift to gift |
|
Michael, michael picasso |
|
Good night |
