Browne Jackson The Load Out Lyrics

The Load Out Lyrics

Everyone I've ever known has wished me well
Anyway that's how it seems, it's
hard to tell
Maybe people only ask you how you're doin'
'Cause that's
easier than letting on how little they can care
But when you know that
you've got a real friend somewhere
Suddenly all the others are so much
easier to bear
Now to see things clear, it's hard enough I know
While
you're waiting for reality to show
Without dreaming of the perfect love and
holding it so far above
If you stumbled on to someone real, you'd never
know
(You'd never know)
You could be with somebody who is lonely
too
(Sometimes it doesn't show)
He might be trying to get across to
you
(Words can be so slow)
When your own emptiness is all that's getting
through
There comes a point when you're not sure why you're still
talking
I passed that point long ago
(Long ago)
Now I'm so tired of
all this circling
And all these glimpses of the end
(You know it's
useless to pretend)
That's all the voices say:
"You'll go right on
circling
Until you've found some kind of friend"
Well I saw you
through the laughter and the noise
You were talking with the soldiers and
the boys
While they scuffled for your weary smile
I thought of all the
empty miles
And the years I've spent looking for your eyes
(Looking for
your eyes)
Now I'm sitting here wondering what to say
(That you might
recognize)
Afraid that all these words might scare you away
(And break
through the disguise)
No one ever talks about their feelings
anyway
Without dressing them in dreams and laughter
I guess it's just too
painful otherwise
Look, it's like you're standing in the window
Of a house
nobody lives in
And I'm sitting in a car across the way
(Let's just
say)
It's an early model Chevrolet
(Let's just say)
It's a warm and
windy day
You go and pack your sorrow
Trash man comes tomorrow
Leave
it at the curb and we'll just roll away
