Songtexte All the Things - The Byrds

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
But I don't know how it feels
See the earth, it slips beneath my heels, as I pass through
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-blowin' 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
