The Late Show - Jackson Browne (杰克逊·布朗)[00:00:00]
Everyone I've ever known has wished me well[00:00:00]
Anyway that's how it seems it's hard to tell[00:00:08]
Maybe people only ask you how you're doing[00:00:14]
'Cause that's easier than letting on how little they could care[00:00:19]
But when you know that you've got a real friend somewhere[00:00:29]
Suddenly all the others are so much easier to bear[00:00:36]
Now to see things clear it's hard enough I know[00:00:42]
While you're waiting for reality to show[00:00:49]
Without dreaming of the perfect love[00:00:55]
And holding it so far above[00:00:59]
That if you stumbled onto someone real you'd never know[00:01:02]
You'd never know[00:01:08]
You could be with somebody who is lonely too[00:01:10]
Sometimes it doesn't show[00:01:14]
He might be trying to get across to you[00:01:17]
Words can be so slow[00:01:21]
When your own emptiness is all that's getting through[00:01:23]
There comes a point when you're not sure why you're still talking[00:01:28]
I passed that point long ago[00:01:34]
Long ago[00:01:38]
I'm so tired of all this circling[00:01:43]
And all these glimpses of the end[00:01:49]
You know it's useless to pretend[00:01:53]
That's all the voices say[00:01:56]
You'll go right on circling[00:01:59]
Until you've found some kind of friend[00:02:03]
While I saw you through the laughter and the noise[00:02:08]
You were talking with the soldiers and the boys[00:02:15]
While they scuffled for your weary smiles[00:02:22]
I thought of all the empty miles[00:02:26]
And the years that I've spent looking for your eyes[00:02:29]
Looking for your eyes[00:02:34]
And now I'm sitting here wondering what to say[00:02:36]
That you might recognize[00:02:41]
Afraid that all these words might scare you away[00:02:43]
And break through the disguise[00:02:47]
No one ever talks about their feelings anyway[00:02:50]
Without dressing them in dreams and laughter[00:02:55]
I guess it's just too painful otherwise[00:02:59]
Look It's like you're standing in the window[00:03:34]
Of a house nobody lives in[00:03:39]
And I'm sitting in a car across the way[00:03:42]
Let's just say[00:03:48]
It's an early model chevrolet[00:03:50]
Let's just say[00:03:55]
It's a warm and windy day[00:03:57]
You go and pack your sorrow[00:04:03]
The trash man comes tomorrow[00:04:06]
Leave it at the curb and we'll just roll away[00:04:09]
