I wrote this for my friend
A friend I never knew
Now every single stage we grace they know your name
It's safe to say they throw their lighters in the air
I know that you were there
On that sun drenched afternoon
I felt your spirit in the wind
We threw a hundred blue balloons for you
A hundred blue balloons for you
I can not forget the view
And I've never known the truth
Like the words they spoke for you my friend, it's not the end
We're sending you a hundred blue balloons
A hundred blue balloons for you
I could not forget the view
And I've never known the truth
Like the words they spoke for you my friend, it's not the end
We're sending you a hundred blue balloons
A hundred blue balloons
A hundred blue balloons
A hundred blue balloons
A hundred blue balloons
W'dup brother, I'm penning you this letter
And you know I gotta send it even though we never met up
But I hope that you get this wherever you are
I hope you know in my heart I consider us connected
See myself reflected in you
A few years difference but rolling with a similar crew
We were two young fellas tryna make it out the mountains
And by all accounts man you sounded astounding
I know, yeah I know you were amazing
'Cause I recognise the written on the faces
Of your family and friends, I'm sorry for their loss
I'm offering my them my commiserations
This a dedication to the life
Of a beautiful soul I wish that I could've known
But I don't so I'm writing this poem just to say
I will never forget how I felt on that day
I wrote this for my friend
A friend I never knew
Now every single stage we grace they know your name
It's safe to say they throw their lighters in the air
I know that you were there
On that sun drenched afternoon
I felt your spirit in the wind
We threw a hundred blue balloons for you
A hundred blue balloons for you
We threw a hundred blue balloons for you
A hundred blue balloons for you
We threw a hundred blue balloons
A hundred blue balloons
A hundred blue balloons
This one's for everyone that's ever lost anyone
Does real closure even exist? Tryna find a bit of peace
Can't help but feel like everything is said and done
We're still left stricken with grief
And there's no time limits to heartbreak
So hard we can't shake the pain so we dwell on the loss
'Cause memories live on in the minds of your loved ones
Each tear's a memento shed in every drop
So if you're listening in just know that you were a gift
You're someone I'll never forget and it feels so surreal
That I never even met you in a pass life
I reckon we were probably friends
For those who did it goes one foot after the other
Tryna hold it together while bearing the weight
Just know I got love for the brother, I'll hold it forever
I feel blessed just to mention your name
I wrote this for my friend
A friend I never knew
Now every single stage we grace they know your name
It's safe to say they throw their lighters in the air
I know that you were there
On that sun drenched afternoon
I felt your spirit in the wind
We threw a hundred blue balloons for you
A hundred blue balloons for you
I can not forget the view
And I've never known the truth
Like the words they spoke for you my friend, it's not the end
We're sending you a hundred blue balloons
A hundred blue balloons for you
I could not forget the view
And I've never known the truth
Like the words they spoke for you my friend, it's not the end
We're sending you a hundred blue balloons
A hundred blue balloons
A hundred blue balloons
A hundred blue balloons
A hundred blue balloons
