lyrics
YOU DON’T NEED ME
by
Bob Wilders
Way up on a mountain.
Upon a little rock
Sat an old man.
Who hardly ever talked.
But the words he would say.
Could make any person see.
He said, “Loneliness is emptiness,
So just let me be.”
AND I DON’T NEED YOU AND YOU DON’T NEED ME
Well, if I only had wings
Don’t you know that I would fly.
Reach my arms up to heaven
Let my fingers touch the sky.
But I can’t fly I admit it.
I don’t really regret it.
If you can’t accept it.
Then just go ahead and forget it.
AND I DON’T NEED YOU AND YOU DON’T NEED ME
My heart is empty
My soul is full.
If I don’t appear wise to you.
It’s ‘cause you are the fool.
I know a poets pot of gold
Is the words that he can weave.
Make a tumbling and a mumbling
His phrases to deceive.
But I’ll say it so you can understand.
I’ll say it clearly and with lucidity.
You see your insistent ignorance
Is only clouded by your stupidity.
