Michael Lyrics - Down Colorful Hill - Red House Painters

Michael, where are you now? 

Michael, where are you now? 

Smile at my excitement 

The last time you called 

I slipped again to ask you 

From whereabouts 

I got a lead from your old triple ex-girlfriend 

She said, "I heard he lost his mind again" 

I said, "I didn't know that you ever did" 

Michael, where are you now? 

Michael, where are you now? 

Sleeping through the mornings in flannel and hair 

Getting high in the Southern air 

Surely send the evenings down the unfamiliar 

The last to feel the salt water feeling 

Skipping the shadows in the dead zone 

With the ghost on your side 

Of the state's borderline 

Of whispering 

Take it, take it 

Take it, take it 

Take it 

Do you remember the first subway ride 

Our first heavy metal haircut 

Our last swim on the East Coast 

And me with my ridiculous looking pierced nose? 

I remember your warm smile in the sun 

The daydreaming boy without a shirt on 

The burning ambers fly father 

Left the mother of three sons 

You're the oldest juvenile delinquent boy 

My best friend
