Greg Brown – Lost My Best Friend Lyrics

His name was Stephen but we all called him Steve
We were BIG rock stars or so he believed
His heart full of life, he wore on his sleeve
Full of imagination and creativity
 
He remembered your name and your birthday too
He always had something to say just to you
It might make you laugh, might make you cry
But you always knew it wasn't a lie
 
How do you think I feel?
Like I lost my best friend
How do you think I feel?

Jamming at Steve's house, that's where it began
Friendships emerged and so did the band
We played in the park, on stages and trucks
Colorful hard-shells, brought us good luck

My generous friend, always shared what he had
Steve's crazy ideas, soon became fads
We wrote lots of songs and played all around
A family of friends danced and followed us 'round

How do you think I feel?
Like I lost my best friend
How do you think I feel?  
 
His friends were his passion, his family too
He loved his mom EB and his father too
The pets we so loved they kept them around
This scene soon became the Turtles playground
 
Our music and shows, we put in the cloud
A few made us cringe, but most made us proud
We took time to say just how we feel
To lose such a friend, it seems so unreal
 
How do you think I feel?
Like I lost my best friend

How do I think You feel?
Like you lost your best friend

Now I know how we feel
We have lost our best friend
