That's Me lyrics
Song information
Artist: Paul Simon Album: Surprise
Lyrics
Well I'll just skip the boring parts chapters one, two, three And get to the place where you can read my face and my biography
Here I am, I'm eleven months old, dangling from my daddy's knee There I go, it's my graduation I'm picking up a bogus degree That's me Early me. that's me
Well I never cared much for the money And money never cared for me I was more like a land-locked sailor Searching for the emerald sea Just searching for the emerald sea, boys, searching for the sea
Oh my god First love opens like a flower A black bear running through the forest light holds me in her sight and her Power But tricky skies, your eyes are true The future is beauty and sorrow Still, I wish that we could run away and live the life we used to If just for tonight and tomorrow
I am walking up the face of the mountain Counting every step I climb Remembering the names of the constellations Forgotten is a long, long time That's me I'm in the valley of twilight Now I'm on the continental shelf That's me I'm answering a question I am asking of myself
