From the recording Celebrate
Lyrics
On a plane I met a friend of my parents’
He smiled up the aisle from me
“It seems all your friends are gettin’ married
Must be a nice thing to see”
“I’m at this age where my friends are all dying”
He said with a smile on his face
He laughed just to stop himself from crying
Seems like a new one each day
When we all escape our littered haze
We will celebrate the June
Step into the rain, uncovered face
Feel the eyes green, brown, and blue
I went to a bar last Thursday
To recognize the life of a friend
I happened on a story I ain’t heard yet
About a job that he had as a kid
Used to jump out of planed into fires
Must have been a fearful thing
Raised glass after glass to is memory
Oh I never had a heavier drink
When we all escape our littered haze
We will celebrate the June
Step into the rain, uncovered face
Feel the eyes green, brown, and blue
