lyrics
"So Long Brian"
Written by Joe Preacher
You never had too much to say
About the times I went away
But you were always happy when I came home
It was a life of simple joys
Heard the signal through the noise
Happy as a dog who got a bone
Had a habit of being there when I most needed a friend
If I said you were a deep thinker Id be lying
But the simplest songs are the ones that you remember
Anyway, so long Brian
Sidewalk cafe’s crowded and loud
Still picked your face out from the crowd
Made sure we'd meet again back where I come from
And so together we head west
Rest my head against your chest
Heard your heart just like a beating drum
Had a habit of being there when I most needed a friend
If I said you were a deep thinker Id be lying
But the simplest songs are the ones that you remember
Anyway, so long Brian
