enough to turn your knees to jelly." Folk Roots
"...not
a note is out of place, from its understated opening to the beautifully
arranged multi-layered conclusion. I defy even the stoniest hearts
to be unmoved." Musician
"...a
sweet melancholia." Evening News
I used to think life was simple
I used to think I'd make the grade
I used to think it got easier with age
I used to think I'd got it made
I used to think if I worked
hard
And gave it all I've got I'd win the game
I used to think I'd never be out on the streets
Empty like a can that's been thrown away
But I was wrong
Yes, I was wrong
I used to think that I
knew what I wanted
I used to think that everything was clear
I used to think I'd have someone to come home to
I used to think my home was here
But I was wrong
Yes, I was wrong
Hey Buddy, can you spare
a dime?
Hey Buddy, it could be you next time
You know nothing of my
life
You know nothing at all
