From the recording Don't Worry John
This song is a tribute to John Mann, who greatly influenced and inspired us. He was a brilliant songwriter, an amazing performer and on every one of the far too few opportunities we had to spend any time with him, a beautiful human being.
We know the words to all your songs
Lyrics
Northern lights dance through the sky
music fills the air and I
think this might
be a perfect night
Your words paint pictures of my youth
the beauty of a simple truth
capturing
the spirit of the nations
The day you gave us all the news Thought about what we might lose
Don’t worry John
We all know your songs
and We will sing along
Just like we used to do
When we sang these song with you.
Every melody in tune
will always be within us too
When you Forget
We will sing with you.
The day you gave us all the news Thought about what we might lose
Don’t worry John
We all know your songs
and We will sing along
Just like we used to do
When we sang these song with you.
Through it all
you kept your pride
we all laughed and we all cried
we all cried
You took us on your honeymoon
we know the postcard on the room
you drank with us in London Town
Don’t worry John
We all know your songs
and We will sing along
Just like we used to do
When we sang these song with you.
We stand here arm in arm
Singing proud and strong
Just like we used to do
When we sang these song with you
