Song: Vonda Shepard

 

 I was so lost and you were so profound 

 You taught me how to fly with my feet still on the ground 

 And you told me to be what it is that I was 

 No matter what all of the businessmen said 

 

 Serious Richard, why do you frown like you do? 

 Why do you think the whole world is after you? 

 Well, you're probably right and it's probably true about me, too 

 

 'Cause sometimes the world ain't sweet 

 Oh these days, when was it ever? 

 Maybe it's just this city hurts 

 Oh Richard, I love you worse 

 

 Serious Richard 

 I often recall the time in the doorway in Paris 

 The time of the broken sinks and the broken hearts 

 And the broken weeds that we tore apart 

 Thinking they were flowers, thinking they were art 

 

 We were so smart, Richard 

 We liked our love, we loved to live 

 Out in the streets we knew how to give 

 We were alive, happy to be alive 

 

 You don't know my memory lingers 

 Or the message of your fingers 

 

 Serious Richard, where did you go? 

 I never thought an ending we would ever know 

 Now it's so cold without your love
