lirik lagu johnny paycheck - old violin
well, i can’t recall, one time in my life,
i’ve felt as lonely as i do tonight.
i feel like i could lay down, and get up no more,
it’s the d-mndest feelin’; i never felt it before.
tonight i feel like an old violin,
soon to be put away and never played again.
don’t ask me why i feel like this, h-ll, i can’t say.
i only wish this feelin’ would just go away.
i guess it’s ‘cos the truth,
is the hardest thing i ever faced.
‘cos you can’t change the truth,
in the slightest way. i tried.
so i asked myself,
i said: ‘john, where’d you go from here?’
then like a d-mned fool,
i turned around and looked in the mirror.
and there i saw, an old violin.
soon to be put away and never played again.
so one more time, just to be sure,
i said: ‘john, where in the h-ll do you go from here?’
you know that when a nickel’s worth of difference,
and i looked in the mirror, that’s when i knew.
that there i was seein’, an old violin.
soon to be put away, and never played again.
and just like that, it hit me,
that old violin and i were just alike.
we’d give our all to music,
and soon, we’d give our life.
