Song for Eric.

You were my friend
But that was long ago.
And now you're gone, and I don't know.
I don't know what was wrong.

You never answered my mails
On your birthday last May.
How could I know
Where did you go?

But if you walk ten thousand miles
You may know where I am.
But if you walk ten thousand miles
Then you know where I am.

It was you who betrayed
You were not to trust.
But although we were friends
And I tried to forgive in the end.

But you vanished in a haze
To the jungle you loved best
How could I know
Where did your conscience go?

But if you walk ten thousand miles
You may find where I am.
But if you walk ten thousand miles
Then you know where I am.
