Текст (слова) песни: Todd Rundgren - The Want of a Nail
I`ve been wrong I had plans so big But the devil`s in the details I left out one thing No one to love me No one to love me No one to love
For the want of a nail, the world was lost For the want of a nail, the world was lost
For the want of a nail, the shoe was lost For the want of a shoe, the horse was lost For the want of a horse, the rider was lost For the want of a rider, the message was lost
For the want of a rider, the message was lost For the want of a message, the battle was lost For the want of a battle, the war was lost For the want of a war, the kingdom was lost
(Such a tiny thing)
You`re askin` What`s all this talk about horses and war? Put yourself in the place of the man at the forge And day after day you live a life without love `Til the morning you can`t take it anymore And you don`t get up
Multiply it a billion times Spread it all `round the world Put the curse of loneliness on every boy and every girl Until everybody`s kicking, everybody`s scratching Everything seems to fail And it was all for the want of a nail
Tell me what else could the answer be Don`t hold back now Give me all your love Just a little more love A little tiny bit of love
