Letra Doctor My Eyes

Doctor My Eyes es la primera canción de Jackson Browne que se convirtió en un éxito. Destaca los desafíos y desilusiones que Browne enfrentó al observar el mundo a su alrededor, reflejando una pérdida de inocencia y el costo de la sabiduría adquirida al enfrentar las realidades a menudo duras de la vida. La canción refleja la sensibilidad única de Browne para capturar la complejidad de las emociones humanas y los dilemas sociales en su escritura.

Doctor, my eyes have seen the years
And the slow parade of fears without crying
Now I want to understand
I have done all that I could, to see the evil and the good
without hiding. You must help me if you can

Doctor, my eyes, tell me what is wrong
Was I unwise to leave them open for so long

'Cause I have wandered through this world
And as each moment has unfurled, I've been waiting
to awaken from these dreams
People go just where they will, I never noticed them until
I got this feeling, that it's later than it seems

Doctor, my eyes, tell me what you see
I hear their cries, just say if it's too late for me


Doctor, my eyes, they cannot see the sky
Is this the price for having learned how not to cry
