One of the most beautiful songs ever made. From the album Unhalfbricking (1969). (Music of UMG)
You must philosophise
But why must you bore me to tears?
You're red around the eyes
You tell me things no one else hears
You spend all your time crying
Crying the hours in tears
Crying the hours into years
Come lend your time to me
And you will know that you are free
And when you look at me
Don't think you're owning what you see
For remember that you're free
And that's what you want to be
So just lend your time to me
You must philosophise
But why must you bore me to tears?
You're red around the eyes
You tell me things no one else hears
You spend all your time crying
Crying the hours in tears
Crying the hours in to ears
(Sandy Denny)

Strange song this. The 2 parts somehow never seemed to blend that well to me, like 2 different songs put together, although it's still a pleasant listen overall.
