Byrds - All Things lyrics

(Roger McGuinn and Jacques Levy)

See the sun how bright it is

It never was before

See the sun it shines right through

My door but no ones's there

I see warm smiles I never gave

Reflecting in the air

All the things I want today

All the things I wasted on the way

See the earth how sweet it smells

I don't know how it feels

See the earth it slips beneath

My heels as I pass thru

I see tears that I never shed

In every drop of dew

All the things I want today

All the things I wasted on the way

Hear the skies singing songs I could have played

Too busy talking to prove that I was not afraid

See this dried up broken straw

It's turning to rot

See this dried up broken straw

Forgotten left behind

I see things that I never done

A blowing in the wind

All the things I want today

All the things I wasted

All the things I want today

All the things I wasted

All the things I want today

All the things I wasted on the way
