  • it's been so long
    since I've felt the heat of the sun on my paw,
    you're the one who knows me best
    'cause you think that your flirt intends
    you're a smile from the streets
    you hold my heart in my hands while I'm beat.
    you're always on the decline
    you take another sip of wine - a toast to us.
    you're the one with the stars,
    you held up the signs for the one that you are

    you're the one in the sky, where did you go?
    you know you're where the planets grow
    you're in the sun, the face of pluto... Writer/s: JOHN FRUSCIANTE

  • Dom from Anchorage, WaI would have to disagree, this is when he was a heavy drug addict and making albums to get his fix, sure he was making good music at this time but after he kicked his habit he music evolved and became something more. And I would agree go listen to The Empryean its great, can't wait for the next chili peppers album
  • Paul from Columbia, Scamazing song. and mark, go listen to the empryean, its a great album.
  • Mark from New York, NyThis is when John Frusciante really understood music... I wish this could happen again. Stadium Arcadium did me in, I gave up. And I know John will never be the same. Ever again...
