While my friend Gregory was in the hospital, dying at the impossibly young age of twenty-seven, he asked that I write a song for him. He wanted me to release it in the spirit of “That’s what Friends are For.” So i wrote “Boy Blue.” i poured out my heart, and my liver, into that song. It was tangled up in so much of my sorrow and so cloaked in my sadness that I don't know if it was good enough for him.
The True Colors residence has a plaque on the building with a dedication on it to the memory of “Gregory Natal, Boy Blue.” We couldn’t save him, but maybe we’ll save a few others. I’ve said it before: God loves all the flowers, even the wild ones that grow on the side of the highway.

Lyrics:
You never knew yourself well enough
But she never knew you at all
And when she put you out on your own
It may have stolen your innocence
But not your soul
Tell me where is little boy blue
You'll find him standing always
One step ahead
Fast a little, shy a little, boy blue
Wise blood runs warms and deep
On the street
... Kids walking, just a kid walking
You send a letter with photographs
And I'll tuck them under my dreams
And if we wake up old beyond our years
Not quite as brave as we seem
It's just the pain that never disappears
Tell me where is boy blue
You'll find him standing always one step ahead...
Dance a little, cry a little...
Where are you boy blue
Where are you...
