Shawn Phillips I'm Tired Lyrics

Sometimes I feel
That the world is unkind
It builds on my hunger
And tears on my time
And I'm tired, yes, I'm tired

Every face on the street
Is as cold as the air
As hard as the pavement
Which moves 'neath my feet
And I'm tired, yes, I'm tired

Sometimes I stop
And I ask to myself
Oh why do you go on
Then a tear fills my eye
I'm ashamed of myself
But I know that I'm bound to go on
So I start out again With a smile on my face
To hide all the empty
And search for a friend
And I'm tired, yes, I'm tired

Sometimes I stop
And I ask to myself
Oh why do you go on
Then a tear fills my eye
I'm ashamed of myself
But I know that I'm bound to go on
So I start out again
With a smile on my face
To hide all the empty
And search for a friend
And I'm tired, yes, I'm tired
