James Taylor - Only For Me [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
Down the end of this barroom
Out of sight of the light in the window
His mind in his whiskey and his body in a folding chair
Far beyond repair
I enter his vision, he watches me look for my seat
He makes his decision and he stands to his feet
Lord, it's a long way down

[Chorus]
It happened to me, wonderful sight
Only for me, only for you
It happened to be a light shining through
From one who was lost and found just like me and you

[Verse 2]
Old man says, "Young man, my you're looking pretty green
Like a stranger to this kind of place
Come sit at my table, come and look into my face
I've got a story to tell
There was a father and son, but that was a long time ago
And when the time came to run
I just couldn't say no so I left them behind"

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
We have seen it before in times of great sorrow
That human compassion will flow from a well that has long run dry

[Chorus]
