Thats Why Im Here — текст песни (James Taylor)

Person to person and man to man

Im back in touch with my long lost friend

Listen to reason and understand

And think of me from way back when

He said me and melissa well we fell out of love

We ran out of luck seems like lightning struck

Ive been thinking of leaving but I cant raise a buck

James Im wondering could I borrow your truck



I said thats why Im here

Got no other reason

Thats why Im standing before you

Thats why Im here



Johns gone found dead he dies high hes brown bread

Later said to have drowned in his bed

After the laughter the wave of the dread

It hits us like a ton of lead

It seems "learn not to burn" means to turn on a dime

And walk on if youre walking even if its an uphill climb

And try to remember that workings no crime

Just dont let em take and waste your time

Thats why Im here



This is an iou

I reckon I owe you one now

Listen wendy and listen gloria

Thisll be better tomorrow



Fortune and fames such a curious game

Perfect strangers can call you by name

Pay good money to hear fire and rain

Again and again and again

Some are like summer coming back every year

Got your baby got your blanket got your bucket of beer

I break into a grin from ear to ear

And suddenly its perfectly clear

Thats why Im here



This is the part about kitty and bim

He loved her and she loved him

Wake em up shake em up the middle of the night

Got to tell me everythings alright

He said thats why Im here



Thats right
