Låttexter: Red Hot Chili Peppers. By The Way. Venice Queen.

Does it go from east to west, y'all?
Body free and a body less, y'all
Come again just to start afresh
And once again to find a home

In the moment of the meantime

Dropping in coming through the mesh, y'all
Checking in just to get it blessed, y'all
Hard to leave when it's picturesque
And find a form that's free to roam

Where you come from, where you going?
Where you come from, where you going?

Do it all then it all again, y'all
Make it up and you make a friend, y'all
Paddle on just around the bend
And find a place where you can see

All the mamas and the papas

Take a chance on a recommend, y'all
Hard as hell just to comprehend, y'all
Disbelief that I do suspend
And easy now to find a breeze

Where you come from, where you going?
Where you come from, where you going?

We all wanna tell her
Tell her that we love her
Venice gets a queen
Best I've ever seen

We all want to kiss her
Tell her that we miss her
Venice gets a queen
Best I've ever

I know you said you don't believe
In God, do you still disagree?
Now that it's time for you to leave
G L O R I A

Is love my friend, my friend, my friend?

Your stylish mess of silver hair
A woman of your kind is rare
Your uniform returns to air
G L O R I A

Is love my friend, my friend, my friend?

And now it's time for you to go
You taught me most of what I know
Where would I be without you, Glo?
G L O R I A

Is love my friend, my friend, my friend?

I see you standing by the sea
The waves you made will always be
Your kiss goodbye before you leave
G L O R I A

Is love my friend, my friend, my friend?
