Jackson Browne Miscellaneous Song For Adam Though Adam was a friend of mine, I did not know him well He was alone into his distance, he was deep into his well I could guess what he was laughing at, but I couldnt really tell Now the stories told that Adam jumped, but Im thinking that he fell Together we went traveling, as we received the call His destination India, and I had none at all Oh, I still remember laughing with our backs against the wall So free of fear, we never thought that one of us might fall I sit before my only candle, but its so little light to find my way Now the story unfolds before my candle Which is shorter evry hour, as it reaches for the day But I feel just like a candle, in a way I guess Ill get there, but I wouldnt say for sure When we parted we were laughing still, as our good-byes were said And I never heard from him again, as each our lives we lead Except for once in someone elses letter that I read Until I heard the sudden word that a friend of mine was dead I sit before my only candle, like a pilgrim sits beside the wave Now this journey appears before my candle As a song thats growing fainter, the harder I play That I fear before I end will fade away I guess Ill get there, but I wouldnt say for sure Though Adam was a friend of mine, I did not know him long And when I stood myself beside him, I never thought I was as strong Still it seems he stopped his singing in the middle of his song Well Im not the one to say I know, but Im hoping he was wrong Im holding out my only candle, but its so little light to find my way Now the storys been laid beneath my candle And its shorter evry hour, as it reaches for the day Yes, I feel just like a candle in a way I hope I get there, but Id never pray |
