8. "I was alright... for a while

I could smile... for a while
But I saw you last night
You held my hand so tight
As you stopped to say 'Hello'
Well you wished me well
You couldnl't tell
That I've been cry-y-y-y-ing over you
Cry-y-y-y-y-ing over you
Yes, now you're gone
and from this moment on
I'll be cryin' cryin' CRYYYY-ayyyy-in'
o-o-o-ov-ve-r-r you!"

Damn, those old tears just start pouring outta my eyes every time...

10. Roy was in a class of his own - difficult to compare him to others

he certainly was a cool dude and it's sad he was only 52 when he died.
