When John Passed Away - Minor Majority

You told me today what I should have known then

Now that I know, will you leave me again?

I’ve been travelling around to make time go away

But something just lingers, something just stays

And everyone’s talking these days

Like there’s something to prove

Though there’s nothing to say

Everyone’s talking but you

'cause your words don’t come cheap

And your thoughts are of use

Remember the time when you & John left the room

You skied on the lake in the light of the moon

Nobody knew until John passed away

But you saw he was sick and you lit up his face

And everyone’s wondering these days

If life is a loan

And if love is for sale

Everone’s wondering but you

'cause you rip off the tags

And you don’t care if it’s new

And you don’t mind the price

Or the market value

So baby come over, 'cause this time I’m sure

Bet you’ll laugh at my jokes like you used to before

I’ve been trying to stop thinking, but man, it’s been hard

If we lower the stakes I might let down my guard

And everyone’s talking these days

On how life should be led

And how love should be made

Now, let’s leave the talking alone

Fall asleep in my arms

I’ll be watching the door

And everyone’s talking these days

So let us be quiet

And let us be safe

Let’s leave the talking alone

Fall asleep in my arms

I’ll be watching the door

And I won’t be running away anymor
