GOOD IVE DONE MY JOB THEN!!! YOUVE MADE MY DAY THERE BUD I KNOW IM A WALKING CONTRADICTION,BUT HEY THATS WHAT MAKES THE WORLD A FUN PLACE HUH HERES A LYRIC THAT MEANS A LOT TO ME A REASON FOR IT ALL Summer smilin’ on the city, another lovely day in Sydney Sunshine fallin’ down like honey in a golden waterfall But in the room where Clare is dyin’ no sunshine sends the shadows flyin’ No children gather ‘round her cryin’ there’s no-one there at all Except perhaps for the one who sees each little sparrow fall Refrain: Don’t talk to me about lonely souls cryin’ Dark quiet rooms and old people dyin’ I don’t want to hear, don’t want to hear it at all Tired old people die alone every day Don’t blame me I didn’t make it that way That’s just how it is, don’t look for a reason for it all Winter weepin’ on the city, a wet and windy day in Sydney Raindrops rollin’ fat and heavy down Clare’s window pane The raindrops on the tin roof beatin’ disturbs the rats as they are feedin’ Back to their nests they all go creepin’ leavin’ Clare alone again It’s been a long and lonely tiime since Clare could hear the rain Refrain: Don’t talk to me about the meaning of life Don’t sing your songs that cut like a knife I don’t want to hear, don’t want to hear them at all Lonely old people ain’t my concern, From dust we come, to dust we return And that’s all there is, don’t look for a reason for it all Springtime’s come at last to Sydney, the flowers are bloomin’ in the city In all their multi-coloured glory they rise to greet the year Memories in shame recallin’ footsteps on the front porch fallin’ Voices through the window callin’ “Is anybody there?” Clare Campbell’s lost and lonely soul is a long, long way from here Refrain: Don’t talk to me about life’s seasons Don’t ask me for answers, don’t ask me for reasons I don’t want to hear, don’t want to hear it at all From the moment we’re born we start to die A man can go crazy if he keeps asking why That’s just how it is, don’t look for a reason for it all. © Eric Bogle BOTTOM LINE THAT AINT THE KINDA WORLD I WANT TO SUBSCRIBE TO, ITS A SMALL WORLD NOW THANKS TO THE NET AND I WANT TO SAY ONE THING TO YOU ALL WHENEVER YOUR IN TROUBLE OR DOWN REMEMBER THIS ONE THING, YOU DO HAVE FRIENDS IN HERE WHO CAN OFFER SUPPORT IF NEED BE "COURAGE BROTHER,YOU DO NOT WALK ALONE I SHALL WALK WITH YOU AND SING YOUR SPIRIT HOME" Explanation time, ive been a soldier(Northern Ireland/!st Gulf War), ive been a university graduate (psychology/philosophy joint honours) im now a stay at home dad, Guess which ones most rewarding, clue it aint killing in the name of,its watching my sons life grow, hes taught me a lot about humanity that boy.
