The Byrds — All the Things

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 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 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 into 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
