Thread Name: Lyr Req: Taxi (Harry Chapin)
Subject: RE: Review: Harry Chapin - Taxi
It is a heartbreaking song and very well delivered.
love and happiness denied for sake of dreams
Unrealised dreams - "Now I'm flying in my taxi... I go flying so high when I'm stoned"
Realised dreams - "Now she's ACTING happy in her fine home"
Who is the least satisfied in this song? I think it is she.
This song made me sad when I was young, it makes me really depressed now. Life is all fekked up.
GODS! I need to watch the giggling baby video again, now.
