Summer day we're on our way Feeling good together beautiful place Just me and my friends having fun Enjoying the sun We are colours we're red and white As my teenage skin was tanned You were my father's fifth child And your look was vintage and wild but now you're stuck in the sand
'Cause it only took a couple of minutes And all the fish had a new home And I was feeling so alone As I called my daddy on the phone Oh though it only took a couple of days Until I could look into my father's eyes again I got this feeling of shame in my head This fact remains: Chris is dead
Well, anyway I was surfing on my board behind the boat When I heard a big crash and suddenly Rocks and stones appeared from the water And I was thinking What are they doing here? They're not supposed to be here. This can't be real. And then my sister started screaming Oh my God we're taking in water I've got water up to my knees And then she picked up the cell and she, she dialed 911 'Cause she was in a shock And I was too, you know I didn't know what to do
'Cause it only took a couple of minutes And all the fish had a new home And I was feeling so alone As I called my daddy on the phone Oh though it only took a couple of days Until I could look into my father's eyes again I got this feeling of shame in my head This fact remains: Chris is dead
Oh, Chris is dead
But look, you've got a new song Yeah, but Chris is dead But hey, you've got this new song And the song, it wouldn't been made up If I wouldn't have sinked that boat in the ocean So when everything comes around I guess things are fine I tell you, things are fine Yeah, things are fine
