Hey Pablo
Lyrics and Vocals: Chris Winters
Music: Rich Huston and Chris Winters
These days you never know
Just what to expect
I turned the news on and I heard how
Suddenly he’s dead
You wait so long for it
You forget to be sad
You lost a shadow that you
Never knew you had
You’d think that 33 years
Would bring me a measure of peace
And knowing that all that’s left are
Memories that never cease
Pablo do you recall
That one gray afternoon
We met just one last time
Our end came much too soon
I still remember
The planes in the air
Tracing circles
Above the empty square
Thunder came that day
In ‘73
Waiting for the storm
We knew would never leave
Hey Pablo
Do you think it’s funny now?
I’m writing from New York
Where irony’s a fallen tower
Hey Pablo
The nightmare’s decades gone
No matter what happened here
Our September will live on
So many thousands gone
In a slow motion flash
All time is compressed into a moment
The present repeats the past
The souls of the disappeared
Will finally be released
The shining ocean reclaims its own
Waves of sadness will bring us peace  Recommend this page to a friend
