Old Violin |
Well I can’t recall one time in my life |
I’ve felt as lonely as I do tonight |
I feel like I could lay down and get up no more |
It’s the damndest feeling, I never felt it before |
Tonight, I feel like an old violin |
Soon to be put away and never played again |
Don’t ask me why I feel like this, hell, I can’t say |
I only wish this feeling would just go away |
I guess it’s 'cause the truth is the hardest thing I’ve ever faced |
'Cause you just can’t change the truth in the slightest way |
I tried |
So I asked myself |
I said, «George, where do you go from here?» |
Then like a fool, I turned around and I looked in the mirror |
And there, I was seeing an old violin |
Soon to be put away and never played again |
So one more time, just to be sure |
I said, «Now, Troubadour, where in the hell do you go from here?» |
And you know, there wasn’t a nickel’s worth of difference |
When I looked into the mirror |
'Cause there, I was seeing an old violin |
Soon to be put away and never played again |
And just like that, it hit me |
Why that old violin and I, we’re just alike |
We give our all to music, and soon we’ll give our life |
Precious memories, how they linger, ooh |
