Gibby Haynes - Michael Stipe lyrics

I finally talked to Michael Stipe He touched me on my arm I met him up in the Hollywood Hills Among the movie and TV stars I finally met old Michael that day I met the girl in his videos too Sofia Coppola looked at me I didn't know what the hell to do Michael Stipe And I tonight Michael Stipe And I cry tonight I finally talked to Michael Stipe But I didn't get to see his car Him and River Phoenix were Leaving on the road tomorrow I finally met old Michael that day Up the Laurel Canyon way Niel said it was full of famous stars Hell I was driving Martin Landau's car Michael Stipe And I tonight Michael Stipe And I cry tonight We said goodbye to John Alfresco At his Chateau Marmont suite We couldn't find a part Not a piece of our hearts I guess we all had a lot better things to see I think I'll go back to Texas soon Leave these Hollywood Hills Shoot myself dead with a gun to my head That's what this town would have me do Michael Stipe And I tonight Michael Stipe And I cry tonight
