Story behind the song
This song was made almost immediately after Jon past
away. We thought it only best not to grieve but to
celebrate and by what other means than, song. So over all, this song is a celebration of his reputation and slight
personality. He was a really good friend and brother but the world looked at him as a normal rebelious teenager, but au contrare mon frere I think he wanted to a be priest. After his passing, his mother prayed for a sign-
just anything and she picked blue roses because they are not often seen. As the week went on she had 9 different sighting of blue roses. They appeared from being at the store where seeing a blue rose embroidered on dress or a blue rose pattern and she even found the last blue rose in the vase in the middle of the table with an assortment of flowers which she had recently put there. Oh, 9 represents the number of children that she had left.
Lyrics
Jon was a friend a friend indeed
a friend like any other would need
a life so short a time well spent
make'n us happy before his assent
a friend indeed a friend I lost
a friend I would redeem at any old cost
bye bye my departed friend
I hope to see once again
it was great to have a friend as you
and hope to see you at the end
Our lives before this tragedy
are all we have for memories
for a life to be shortened
His death was great misfortune
For a family he left and loved
he sent blue roses down from above
bye bye my departed friend
I hope to see once again
it was great to have a friend as you
and hope to see you at the end
People looked at his life so wrong
But now he lives in heaven stand'n strong
Through the eyes of some he helped out many
but to the minds of most he didn't at any
Life has enemies you just can't help
you couldn't change the way he felt
bye bye my departed friend
I hope to see once again
it was great to have a friend as you
and hope to see you at the end
Didn't deserve his given reputation
now he prays for your salvation
he was always good company
and now he lives in harmony
Jon was a friend a friend indeed
a friend like any other would need
a life so short a time well spent
make'n us happy before his assent
a friend indeed a friend I lost
a friend I would redeem at any old cost
bye bye my departed friend
I hope to see once again
it was great to have a friend as you
and hope to see you at the end
bye bye my departed friend
I hope to see once again
it was great to have a friend as you
and hope to see you at the end
