I will sing of you now, old friend of my childhood
when the memories grow stronger and the hard times are dead
and I see you so clear old cloth cap and blue eyes
and your words and your laughter, still ring in my head
and there were times when I thought, life could not change you
that you were of iron and hard as a stone
then I lifted the veil and I saw you were fooling
for gentle, hurt easy, like a child you were lost
for time and a river they roll on together
who knows where we're going to, or where we came from
Oh John, there was no one to touch you
Lord knows I miss you,
now that you've gone
And I saw through your eyes, that the snow it lay whiter
that the deeps they were deeper, that the summers ran dry
and the rivers were oceans deep rolling in splendour
the trees they were giants, that talked with the sky
Then one morning they found you, like a child as if sleeping
but open hand stretching, wide eyed to the sky
and the void that you left, was too deep for the filling
and the love that you gave us, oh it never will die
for time and a river they roll on together
who knows where we're going to or where we came from
Oh John, there was no one to touch you
Lord knows I miss you,
now that you've gone
