lyrics

Hey Joe don’t you know
There’s a world outside your window
Pane it breaks your heart like glass
we sit and we don’t talk
And if I could reach you I would walk
A million miles to find my way
For we think we’re born to live forever
It’s easy when you’ re young and strong
Your eyes are bright but now your older so it seems
In the evening of your song Hey Joe

Hey Joe don’t you go
Leaving things unsaid and done
Your silence is the perfect crime
I sit with my head in hands
You don’t seem to understand
The fear that built this wall so high
For I’ve been down and I’ve been searching
High and low for oh so long
I hope one day I’ll find the answer to your prayer
Every time I sing your song

Hey Joe look at the sun
Think about everything you have done
Don’t it make you laugh and smile
Your son my daddy’s gone
Breaks my heart to see you
Now my Mother and my sister Cry
But I’ll sing out for the love of Ivy
And I will carve her name in stone
Upon that hill above the small town by the sea
And I will carry you back home
Hey Joe every time I sing your song

Hey Joe look at the sky
Don’t it make you wonder why
We’re born into this world of dreams
God know how you feel
you can never tell me
I can never clearly see
Through Father’s father’s eyes
and I hope you find your road to heaven
An’ I hope your journeys not too long
I hope one day we ‘ll be together you and I
Every time I sing your song Hey Joe
Every time I sing your song Hey Joe
