A song inspired by the poem Life's Scars by Ella Wheeler Wilcox. Recorded in Agropoli with the most excellent Francesco Citera on accordion. • • LIFE'S SCARS • They say the world is round, and yet • I often think it square, • So many little hurts we get • From corners here and there. • But one great truth in life I've found, • While journeying to the West- • The only folks who really wound • Are those we love the best. • The man you thoroughly despise • Can rouse your wrath, 'tis true; • Annoyance in your heart will rise • At things mere strangers do; • But those are only passing ills; • This rule all lives will prove; • The rankling wound which aches and thrills • Is dealt by hands we love. • The choicest garb, the sweetest grace, • Are oft to strangers shown; • The careless mien, the frowning face, • Are given to our own. • We flatter those we scarcely know, • We please the fleeting guest, • And deal full many a thoughtless blow • To those who love us best. • Love does not grow on every tree, • Nor true hearts yearly bloom. • Alas for those who only see • This cut across a tomb! • But, soon or late, the fact grows plain • To all through sorrow's test: • The only folks who give us pain • Are those we love the best. • • If you like this video please help by sharing/liking it. Scroll down for lyrics. • VERSE • Praise pictures of people • Who died a long time ago • Hold up their exploits • Think they could do no wrong • CHORUS • While we curse we scream and we shout • At the people who love us • VERSE • Flatter the fleeting stranger • So they'll think the best of us • Show them only our best side • Treat them with the kindest grace • CHORUS • INSTRUMENTAL • VERSE • Celebrate the famous • The glittering life they lead • Hope one day to meet one • Have a story to tell • CHORUS • http://www.thejackstaffordfoundation.... • / thejackstaffordfoundation
