Only for Me — текст песни (James Taylor)

Down the end of this barroom,

Out of sight of the light in the window

His mind in his whiskey

And his body in a folding chair

Far beyond repair

I enter his vision

He watches me look for my seat

He makes his decision

And he stands to his feet

Lord, its a long way down



It happened to me

Wonderful sight

Only for me

Only for you

It happened to be a light shining through

Form one who was lost and found

Just like me and you



Old man says, "young man, my youre looking

Pretty green

Like a stranger to this kind of place

Come sit at my table

Come and look into my face

Ive got a story to tell."



"there was a father and son

But that was a long time ago

And when the time came to run

I just couldnt say no

So I left them behind."



It happened to me

Wonderful sight

Only for me

Only for you

It happened to be a light shining through

Form one who was lost and found

Just like me and you



We have seen it before

In times of great sorrow

That human compassion will flow from a well

That has long run dry



It happened to me

Wonderful sight

Only for me

Only for you

It happened to be a light shining through

Form one who was lost and found

Just like me and you
