All the Things Songtext
von The Byrds

See the sun, how bright it is
It never was before
See the sun, it shines right through my door
But no one′s there
I see warm smiles I never gave
Reflecting in the air

All the things I want today
All the things I've wasted on the way

See the earth, how sweet it smells
I don′t know how it feels
See the earth, it slipped beneath my heels
As I passed through
I see tears that I never shed
In every drop of dew

All the things I want today
All the things I've wasted on the way

Hear the sky singing songs I could have played
Too busy talking to prove that I was not afraid


See this dried up broken straw
Turning into rot
See this dried up broken straw
Forgotten, left behind
I see warm deeds I never done
A-blowing in the wind

All the things I want today
All the things I've wasted on the way

See the sun, how bright it is
It never was before
See the sun, it shines right through my door
But no one′s there
I see love that I never shared
Reflecting in the air

All the things I want today
All the things I′ve wasted
All the things I want today
All the things I've wasted
All the things I want today
All the things I′ve wasted on the way
