lirik lagu steve young - look homeward angel
[verse 1]
well, look at me
they say i’m a dreamer and i’m gazing at the stars
yeah, but i’m gonna be right here
and when old death comes in
i’m gonna say, “man
have you got the key to these old bars?”
so this is a hopeful song
about a death that’s going to be coming on
hey, don’t tell me i can’t sing about it
you know i’m talking about my own
[chorus]
well, i did not come here today
to try to build up my puny little name
and i certainly did not come here
to try to impress n0body
with my pitiful little brushes with fame
i came here hoping to find the couragе
to sing one line about the truth
i think it’s timе i looked at that
right here in front of you
[verse 2]
hey, well, don’t you think it’s kind of sad
everything that ever come to live in this world just died?
hey, me—i think i’ve seen enough and i’m willing to work
on sailing in some different kind of skies
might be on some starlit craft
hey, maybe now it’s just a little loving raft
oh, but we can cross over
to another shore
yeah, maybe i’ll see my old friend thomas
from asheville, north carolina
and we’ll talk about a stone, a leaf, an unfound door
yeah, look homeward angel
[chorus]
well, like i told you
i have not come here today
to try to build up my puny little name
and i certainly did not come here
thinking i’d impress somebody
with my pitiful little brushes with fame
but i’ve come here hoping to find the courage
just to sing one line about the truth
i think it’s time i looked at that
right here in front of you
[verse 3]
yeah, so look at me
i’m a dreamer
i’m gazing at the stars
yeah, but when old death comes in
i’m gonna say, “man
have you got the key to these old bars?”
so this is a happy song
about a birth that’s gonna be coming on
i thought you might want to hear somebody sing about it
i’m talking about our own
