I've lost a friend

And I don't know why

But never again

Will we get together to die.

And why after every last shot

Was there always another ?

Why after all you hadn't got

Did you leave your life to your mother ?

And Honey Harlow

The singer burlesque queen

How did she know

You needed morphine ?

Why didn't you listen

To the warning words of your friends

While they told you so ?

I know you couldn't listen

To people talk about

What they didn't know.

I've lost a friend

And I don't know why

But never again

Will we get together to die.

And why after every last shot

Was there always another ?

Why after all you hadn't got

Did you leave your life to your mother ?
