So I was listening to cat Stevens today… one of my classic favorites, of course. Have you ever heard a song about a million times but suddenly it takes on a completely new meaning? I beautiful gift I think, when something you’ve already known can help you to cope, identify, or just to better comprehend. It’s so necessary to have those little things to cling to when the waters are deep and the storm has gotten rough.
That’s all for tonight…. many more thoughts, but sleep begs reletlessly
Here it is: Cat Stevens, Wild World
Now that I’ve lost everything to you
You say you wanna start something new
And it’s breakin’ my heart you’re leavin’
Baby, I’m grievin’
But if you wanna leave, take good care
I hope you have a lot of nice things to wear
But then a lot of nice things turn bad out there
Oh, baby, baby, it’s a wild world
It’s hard to get by just upon a smile
Oh, baby, baby, it’s a wild world
I’ll always remember you like a child, girl
You know I’ve seen a lot of what the world can do
And it’s breakin’ my heart in two
Because I never wanna see you a sad girl
Don’t be a bad girl
But if you wanna leave, take good care
I hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
But just remember there’s a lot of bad and beware
Baby, I love you
But if you wanna leave, take good care
I hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
But just remember there’s a lot of bad and beware….
