The Kinks - Scattered lyrics
This song is dedicated to the memory of Annie Florence Davies and Carol Bryans. Like a seed that is sewn All the children are scattered By a breeze that is blown Now the crops are all scattered We are torn, we are shattered Now some of us are barmy and battered And the fields where we gathered Are overgrown in weeds and in tatters Through it all we were scattered To the fields we are scattered From the day we are born To grow wild and sleep rough Till from the earth we are torn And a soul that is free Can live on eternally And the spirit can live on Though it's scattered in the world beyond And I've been out of my mind Ever since she's been gone I look around that empty room No sight nor sound She's left so soon She's out of view But the I find Those scattered clues she left behind A photograph with a smiling face A cigarette stubbed out on the fireplace A coffee cup with her lipstick stains I guess I'll never see her again Now my life is all scattered Ever since she's been gone I feel older, I feel fatter I feel the blues coming on We get bruised We get battered But we'll pick up the pieces that scattered And with emotional glue We're gonna stick together, body and mind Ever since she went away I've been alone to contemplate Time and space and why world's move While sitting in my solitude I've watched the stars and wondered why They're scattered up there in the sky And is she up there out of view On some higher platitude I wish I knew Wish I could prove The reason why this life on earth Is scattered like the universe I'm scattered here and scattered there Bits of me scattered everywhere To the fields we are scattered Then from the dust we are born We survive somewhat battered To a new life, a new dawn IN the end what will it matter There'll only be my ashes to scatter And all the logical answers To a worrying mind Will be scattered in time Beaten and battered To the earth you are scattered You're going home so what does it matter To an atomic mind Scattered here while you travel time |
