Said I don't go where I'm supposed to go
And I don't go really anywhere you know
I made up my mind and I don't mind saying so
I went to meet you at Central Square
And when I couldn't find you there
I went walking around the city some more
People watching with a cold blank stare
And I saw your face in everyone, I swear
I'M SO SICK AND TIRED TRYIN TO CHANGE YOUR MIND
WHEN IT'S SO EASY TO DISCONNECT MINE
High times
Man, I feel fine
Don't pick me up
I'm fine right where I am
Amen dear, sweet, Elliott. It kills me that you are no longer with us. I feel such a deep sense of loss when I think about it.
You deserve so much more credit. I don't think "under-appreciated" is quite the right way to put it b/c the people who know your music appreciate it more than anything. And I believe anyone who hears it will fall in love...so I guess the word I'm looking for is under-recognized...if that's even a word. Not enough people have been exposed to your brilliance. Much of the music that is celebrated and successful in the mainstream is just...pathetic.
You should have been the one to receive all the glory. Not fame, I know you were shy and hated that kind of attention. I just mean you deserved to be happy. Your music deserves to be wildly applauded and celebrated. You have helped SO many people...and your legacy lives on. I guess that is the one silver-lining... even though you are no longer here in the physical sense, you will live on forever through the music you created.
My favorite excerpts from this song.
