The
only music that James Blunt heard growing up was “Happy Birthday” and
“Silent Night”. His father considered all music, even
classical, to be unnecessary noise. Although James was not
one to rock the family boat, he didn’t really think he was
going to join the army – it sort of crept up on him. Plus
his family didn’t have a boat. Aged fourteen he just held
the teenage conviction that he would have an interesting
life – maybe that’s why he picked the guitar? Then again,
maybe if he hadn’t, he would have tripped over it. And created beautiful/soothing/mesmerizing music.
So Long Jimmy by James Blunt
I just can't believe that it's over.
We were chilling out on the sofa,
Digging how the guitar goes,
In a song that no one knows.
Did you lick that line yourself,
Or did the voodoo magic help?
Does everyone have a different take?
Do you seem real but I seem fake?
Does everyone get hypnotized by your fire?
So long, Jimmy, so long.
Though you only stayed a moment,
We all know that you're the one. Singing,
So long, Jimmy, so long.
Sure we're glad for the experience,
We miss you now you've gone.
We're just swimming in your soul 'cause,
We all wish we wrote this song.
Life goes on.
I'm just so relieved that it's over.
We were hanging out going nowhere,
Digging how the guitar goes,
In a song that no one knows.
Did you burn that bridge yourself,
Or did the voodoo magic help?
Does everyone have a different take?
Are you just cool and I'm just baked?
Does everyone get mesmerized by your fire?
So long, Jimmy, so long.
Though you only stayed a moment,
We all know that you're the one. Singing,
So long, Jimmy, so long.
Sure we're glad for the experience,
We miss you now you've gone.
We're just swimming in your soul 'cause,
We all wish we wrote this song.
Life goes on.
