Masters [00:19.90]Well, I can't recall, one time in my life, [00:28.94]I've felt as lonely as I do tonight. [00:37.86]I feel like I could lay down, and get up no more, [00:47.11]It's the damndest feelin'; I never felt it before. [01:05.51]Tonight I feel like an old violin, [01:14.76]Soon to be put away and never played again. [01:23.65]Don't ask me why I feel like this, hell, I can't say. [01:32.72]I only wish this feelin' would just go away. [01:41.82]I guess it's 'cos the truth, [01:46.13]Is the hardest thing I ever faced. [01:52.00]'Cos you can't change the truth, [01:56.66]In the slightest way. I tried. [02:07.77] [02:10.29]So I asked myself, [02:12.17]I said: 'John, where do you go from here?' [02:21.58]Then like a damned fool, [02:23.33]I turned around and looked in the mirro [02:29.91]And there I saw, an old violin. [02:39.29]Soon to be put away and never played again. [02:54.74]So one more time, just to be sure, [02:58.07]I said: 'John, where in the hell do you go from here?' [03:06.38]You know that when a nickel's worth of beer, [03:09.11] [03:11.55]When I looked in the mirror, that's when I knew. [03:15.72]That there I was seein', an old violin. [03:25.06]Soon to be put away, and never played again. [03:36.23]And just like that, it hit me, [03:38.89]That old violin and I were just alike. [03:44.67]We'd give our all to music, [03:46.68]And soon, we'll give our life. [03:49.88]
