Pink Floyd Lyrics
Comfortably Numb
Hello
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can here me.
Is there anyone home?
Come on now
I here you're feeling down
I can ease your pain
Get you on your feet again.
Relax
I'll need some information first.
Just the basic facts.
Can you show me wher it hurts?

There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ship smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I can't here what you're saying.
Whe I was a child I had a fever.
My hands felt just like two balloons.
Now I've got that feeling once again
I can't explain, you would not understand
This is not how I am
I have become comfortably numb.
I have become comfortably numb.

Ok.
Just a little pinprick
There will be no more (Aaaaaaaaah)
But you may feel a little sick
Can you stand up?
I do believe it's working, good.
That'll keep you going 'til the show
Come on it's time to go

There is no more pain, you are receding
A distant ship's smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I can't here what you are saying.
When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse.
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown
The dream is gone.
And I have become
Comfortably Numb.
Time
Ticking away  the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your hometown
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told when to run, you missed the starting gun

And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
And racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in a relative way, but your older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death
Every year is gettin shorter never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time has gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say.

Breathe(Reprise)
Home.
Home again.
I like to be here when I can.
When I come home cold and tired,
It's good to warm my bones beside the fire.
Far away, across the field, the tolling of the iron bell,
Calls the faithfull to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spells.
