It's the deepest thing When somebody you love dies I just wanted To give something back to you Gift to gift Michael, michael picasso good night You used to love our house You said it was relaxing Now I walk in the places you walk I talk in all the spaces you talk It still hasn't sunk in Are the words real That come into my head On a morning walk? Do the shadows Play tricks with my mind? For it feels like Nothing has changed But I know it has Michael, michael picasso Good night Heal me Won't you Heal me? Nothing lasts forever Set me free Heal me Won't you Heal me? I'm the one who's left here Heal me Heal me Heal me You turned into a ghost Surrounded by your pain And the thing that I liked the least Was sitting 'round hasker street Lying about the future And we all sit In a room full of tears On a windy day And I looked out But none of these words seem right I just wanted To give something back to you Gift to gift Michael, michael picasso Good night
