Homage to Pink Floyd as I cover Hey You...
Classic rock cover
Hello World!, I say WELCOME. I'm a 57 years old classic rock fan and musician. For the most part I only do covers of classic rock and folk songs but am known from slipping in an occasional ballad or instrumental here and there too.
Story behind the song
What can not be said from ANY Pink Floyd song?. Just listen and think... send your message in care of Pink to the Funny Farm...
Lyrics
Hey you, out there in the cold
Getting lonely, getting old
Can you feel me?
Hey you, standing in the aisles
With itchy feet and fading smiles
Can you feel me?
Hey you, don't help them to bury the light
Don't give in without a fight.
Hey you, out there on your own
Sitting naked by the phone
Would you touch me?
Hey you, with you ear against the wall
Waiting for someone to call out
Would you touch me?
Hey you, would you help me to carry the stone?
Open your heart, I'm coming home.
But it was only fantasy.
The wall was too high,
As you can see.
No matter how he tried,
He could not break free.
And the worms ate into his brain.
Hey you, standing in the road
Always doing what youre told,
Can you help me?
Hey you, out there beyond the wall,
Breaking bottles in the hall,
Can you help me?
Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all
Together we stand, divided we fall.
[click of tv being turned on]
Well, only got an hour of daylight left.
Better get started
Isn't it unsafe to travel at night?
It'll be a lot less safe to stay here.
Your father's gunna pick up our trail before long
Can loca ride?
Yeah, I can ride... Magaret, time to go! Maigret, thank you for everything
Goodbye chenga
Goodbye miss ...
I'll be back
