If you can hear me singing so do you" So, am I remembering incorrectly ? Was it another artist and if so what was the song ? Thanks Bruce |

Younger men don't seem to need a purpose They just stand and fight for anybody's cause And older men view living like a circus The ones who stand up for the longest need applause Younger men claim to know the answers To the questions no one's ever asked before They stand and hold parades but when it's over They don't claim to know the answers anymore Chorus And it's a crazy world but I live here And if you can hear me singing so do you I'm turning out my nitelite feeling satisfied That there's nothing any one of US can do There's nothing any one of us can do Babies cry all day Sometimes for nothing And I have cried all day for not much more And it's hard when you hate the things you're loving You wonder who or maybe what you're loving for Girls seem to think that they're the chosen ones Women choose to let well enough alone And it's their business til you stick your nose in once And then you've got yourself some problems of your own Chorus http://www.cybozone.com/fg/patchwork.html |
