Lyrics

It looked alright at the time
John was always good at believing
And his childhood passed in a flash
He turned around and it had slipped through the cracks
No-one to tell him how to bring it back
Slipped away like the smoke from his lips
Like the raspberry jam he ate as a kid
Raspberry jam
He found a pretty little wife
John was always there to depend on
And he took his kids to the zoo
He turned around and it had slipped through the cracks
No-one to tell him how to bring it back
Slipped away like the smoke from his lips
Like the raspberry jam he ate as a kid
Raspberry jam
He aged as graceful as wine
John looked elegant with grey in his hair
And the doctors said he would die
Near the end in the hospital bed
He said “It’s not I’m unhappy, I’m just feeling sad
That I never took the time to chase the dreams I always wanted to taste”
Raspberry jam... raspberry jam
And the sun shone like a rotten peach
John was buried on a sunny day
And his wife and children all cried
He turned around and it had slipped through the cracks
No-one to tell him how to bring it back
Slipped away like the smoke from his lips
Like the raspberry jam he ate as a kid
Raspberry jam... raspberry jam
