It’s been awhile but I just have to jump back into my blog and really love this prompt today…Thanks https://jimadamsauthordotcom.wordpress.com
The song that comes to mind for me is one I heard last night on the radio. I just loved this song from back in the day. I was much younger then I am now by about 40 years and I can remember thinking about my parents when I use to hear this song…It is from Alan Parsons, “Games People Play.”
Where do we go from here now that all of the children are growin’ up?
And how do we spend our lives if there’s no one to lend us a hand?
I don’t want to live here no more
I don’t want to stay
Ain’t gonna spend the rest of my life
Quietly fading away
Games people play
You take take it or you leave it
Things that they say, honor bright
If I promise you the moon and the stars
Would you believe it
Games people play in the middle of the night
Where do we go from here now that all of the children have grown up?
And how do we spend our time knowin’ nobody gives us a damn?
I don’t want to live here no more
I don’t want to stay
Ain’t gonna spend the rest of my life
Quietly fading away
Games people play
You take take it or you leave it
Things that they say
Just don’t make it right
If I’m tellin’ you the truth right now
Do you believe it?
Games people play in the middle of the night
Games people play
You take take it or you leave it
Things that they say, honor bright
If I promise you the moon and the stars
Would you believe it?
Games people play in the middle of the night
Games people play
You take take it or you leave it
Things that they say
Just don’t make it right
If I’m tellin’ you the truth right now
Do you believe it?
Games people play in the middle of the night
After reading the lyrics, it’s kind of funny now b/c I really think they don’t mean very much at all. I guess that’s what age does for you, you become a lot wiser than you were at 20 😉 . Happy Sunday Y’all and let’s have a great week.
