For Them
For Them
You say “happy ones are best”
Some are sad and some confess
There are ones about love
Growing old, and oh death
But it seems everybody wants
The song to be sung just for them
There are ones about the road
The sickness of a heavy load
Ones that make you cry with friends
And ones that make you smile again
But it seems everybody wants
The song to be sung just for them
[bridge]
If I could sum up this whole world
In the span of just one verse
Then I could put this guitar down
And I could shed this writer’s curse
But it’s really not that easy
When you have a way with words
You say “happy ones are best”
But will they really stand the test
When they’re up against the issues
That the difficult address
‘Cos it seems everybody wants
The song to be sung just for them
It seems everybody wants
The song to be sung just for them
