*We came together on a day in London As you played to the werewolves howl With a purpose to teach us something Enjoy every sandwich now You handed us your empty heart Laid out on a bed of coals Always in search of a shooter So you could play it all night long No amount of lawyers, guns, or money Could hasten down your wind You let nothing come between us Looking for the next best thing You always were an excitable boy Accidentally like a martyr To your good tunes it's goodnight my friend See you in the ever after* January 24, 1947- September 7, 2003

Warren Zevon
*We came together on a day in London As you played to the werewolves howl With a purpose to teach us something Enjoy every sandwich now You handed us your empty heart Laid out on a bed of coals Always in search of a shooter So you could play it all night long No amount of lawyers, guns, or money Could hasten down your wind You let nothing come between us Looking for the next best thing You always were an excitable boy Accidentally like a martyr To your good tunes it's goodnight my friend See you in the ever after* January 24, 1947- September 7, 2003
All lines have to do with one of his songs. Out of all those that have passed, I miss Warren the most.
