| Jackson Browne – Farther On Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
Great comments here about this incredible song written by one of the most courageous artists of our time. I agree with mmagliaro about the pervasive sadness in the lyrics. It's heartbreaking. But Jackson Browne leaves a hint of hope at the end--the silver lining to this cloudy life--with these words: "...they lay down behind me to sleep beside the road 'til the morning has come, where they know they will find me with my maps and my faith in the distance, moving farther on." Sounds like he has no intention of giving up, no matter how tough the struggle becomes. And he hasn't. He is still bringing the truth and entreating us to look squarely at it. Check out "Time the Conqueror". |
