As Tears Go By..


It's 2 am in the morning, and I have to do my biology lab report. Class starts at 8:30 so I have to finish everything by 7:30!!!!
Listen to music while writing the report kind of helps. This song is quite old but I still like it.

''It is the evening of the day, I sit and watch the children play..."
A contrast between 2 different generations. As narrator is from the 'old generation' , it is the 'evening' of his life (he has reach the last stages of life). As for the children, whose lives are still long and promising, they have 'smiling faces'.

Imagine 50 years later, I will also be an old lady...sits and watches as life goes by. LOL.
[ 3 am and scary thoughts]

Ok! back to lab! aja aja fighting!


As Tears Go By

Rolling Stones

It is the evening of the day
I sit and watch the children play
Smiling faces I can see
But not for me
I sit and watch
As tears go by

My riches cant buy everything
I want to hear the children sing
All I hear is the sound
Of rain falling on the ground
I sit and watch
As tears go by

It is the evening of the day
I sit and watch the children play
Doin things I used to do
They think are new
I sit and watch
As tears go by
