It’s time for Song Lyric Sunday again…Today’s prompt comes from Mr. Jim to find a song that mentions doctor, cure, heal, treat or drugs … Thank you for coming up with new prompts every week along with so much information on the music.
This week I’m going to go with Doctor My Eyes, by Jackson Brown. This is the first time I’ve seen this version of the song. Very interesting all of the different places and instruments they use for this song. Enjoy …
Doctor, my eyes have seen the years
And the slow parade of fears, without crying
Now I want to understand
I have done all that I could
To see the evil and the good without hidin’
You must help me if you can
Doctor, my eyes
Tell me what is wrong
Was I unwise
To leave them open for so long?
‘Cause I have wandered through this world
And as each moment has unfurled
I’ve been waiting to awaken from these dreams
People go just where they will
I never noticed them until I got this feeling
That it’s later than it seems
Doctor, my eyes
Tell me what you see
I hear their cries
Just say if it’s too late for me
Doctor, my eyes
But cannot see the sky
Is this the prize
For having learned how not to cry?
Third time listening to this tune today, but it doesn’t get much better than Jackson Browne. I loved the video that you selected, Scarlet.
Thanks, first time I ever saw this one…
A very apt and popular song this week well chosen 😳😳
Thanks for stopping by…Hope your week is starting off good. Blessings
