The Byrds

The Byrds ( /ˈbɜrdz/) were an American rock band, formed in Los Angeles, California in 1964. The band underwent multiple line-up changes throughout its existence, with frontman Roger McGuinn (aka Jim McGuinn) remaining the sole consistent member, until the group disbanded in 1973.

See the sun how bright it is
It never was before
See the sun it shines right through
My door but no one's there

I see warm smiles I never gave
Reflecting in the air

[Chorus]
All the things I want today
All the things I wasted on the way

See the earth how sweet it smells
I don't know how it feels
See the earth it slips beneath
My heels as I pass through

I see tears that I never shed
In every drop of dew

[Chorus]

Hear the skies singing songs I could have played
Too busy talking to prove that I was not afraid
See this dried up broken straw
It's turning to rot

See this dried up broken straw
Forgotten left behind
I see things that I never done
A blowing in the wind

All the things I want today
All the things I wasted
All the things I want today
All the things I wasted

[Chorus]
