Morningside, the old man died.
And no one cried, he surely died alone.
And truth is sad,
For not a child would claim the gift he had.
The words he carved became his epitaph......
"For my children"

Excellent sound, Thank you for posting this version! I too love this song. I love the Hot August Night album, especially the first 3 songs of the second CD: Play me, Canta Lebre, and Moringside. These 3 song touch me like no other and put me in the very best of moods...

@4evermore12 Thanks for the upload mate. Probably the most saddest song i ever heard. I haven't heard of the "Play Me - Complete Uni Recordings". Here in Australia there was a triple CD by Reader's Digest called THE BEST OF NEIL DIAMOND (all MCA material). Do you know or like "The Time is Now"? Check out my upload.

Silky smooth voice. Untouchable lyrics. Simply Genius.



Does anyone know the year this song was recorded? I'd never heard it before...What a great song! Neil Diamond is such a classic!

@mrob75 This was first released on 'Moods' in 1972. Track 16 & 17 disc 3 of 'Play Me:...' are the original 'Moods' recording. It was also released on 'Hot August Night' 1972 but in that track Neil talks during the Prelude.

@MrSanjavierino It is a beautiful song. It reminds me of an old western I saw were an old woman pretended to be dead to get to see her children. She knew that while they could not find time to come see her while she was alive they would come to her funeral. Sad!
