- Compassion from Healing.
LYRICS:
You want more, and still more,
Until you get more than you ever bargained for.
Now its plain, clear as rain,
I've seen your symptoms many times before.
Lying on your bed of pain
What will you have now?
What are riches untold in a life without compassion?
For there's no winter as cold
As a life without compassion.
There's no prescription that's sold
That can heal you like compassion.
Well you tried and you cried,
And let your disappointment make you hard inside.
You have doubt, you reach out,
Still you're the only one you care about.
Hiding in your sack of woe
What do you need now?
For there is nothing so sad
As a life without compassion.
And even love has turned bad,
It was love without compassion.
And you don't need what you had
'Cause you did not have compassion.
Dying on your bed of pain
What will you have now?
You'll get no judgment from me,
I can only feel compassion.
And if that's what you need,
I will give you my compassion.
Just don't forget about me
'Cause we all need some compassion.
Open up your heart
So you can start to feel compassion.
Get down on your knees,
Pray to heaven for compassion.
Everybody needs compassion.
If you want to be healed
Then you know you got to feel compassion
One of the greatest musicians/singer/songwriter/producer of all time. A great underrated talent. A wizard, a true star....
Songs don't come better than this thank you so much Todd
I agree with you Stephen! I wish everyone could hear this song! ✌️❤️
Love this song even more now than I did when it came out
It's hard to believe 40+ yrs have just flown by us. Learning love is ALWAYS THE ANSWER AND COMPASSION, HEALING 1&2.
Love your show man!! 🦋🦋🦋🐾🐾💞
I'm 23 and my Dad used to play this for me when I was young.
One of my friends is really struggling with drugs and this week we finally got him into a rehab facility,
The only guy who is there for the guy outside of his family sat down and listened to the 40th aniverssary on vinyl with me after visiting our boy at the treatment center.
The most important and easiest thing we can do in this life is to have compassion and love others without judgement.
Best of luck to you and your friend. I'm 34. I lost two family members to addiction and have another family member who still struggles with alcohol. Addiction is a nasty beast and a lifelong challenge. Keep showing up for him. Connection and compassion does wonders. Someone said "connection is the opposite of addiction" and I think that's very true. Thanks for being a good friend.
An amazing song - God sent lyrics and music
Something we as humans all need more of!
Todd Rundgren is a Man of All Seasons and Just Keeps Pleasing with Compassion....
Oh my heart. That was a great blast from the past but as eternal as ever. Thank you.
How can I say how much this changed my paradigm?
If you want to be healed
You know you've got to feel
Compassion
Utter Magnificence.
Todd, I love you x
fantastic, moving
leaves you speechless
Fantastic Lyrics and Music
I bought this album 39 years ago....wow.
Will never forget the night I bought this record then had a car accident on the way home, but everything was fine, memories lol one of my favorites.
I'm glad you weren't hurt!
May Yah bless you.
Awesome as usual from the genius of sir Todd!
My favorite Todd song.
The entire record is amazing
You can hear a reprise of "Time Heals" . Absolute genius.
great song
Thank You Todd! My go to song💓
Another song I used to hear on rotation on Scrambled Super TV in my native DMV Metropolitan in the 80's. There was 1 more from Todd played there only I can't recall the name of such. I so wanna hear that 1 again too.
😌What can I say? The 80's were the tits.
Thank you Todd Rundgren.❤💗💓💕💖💞
Love this song!keeps me going:))love todd
Love this
I love the pre-chorus sections on this.
Goose bumps
I met Mark Farner once and had a good long talk about many things, and I asked about Todd, and immediately he says "I Think that Todd is a Christian Waiting to Happen" !!! WoW Awesome!!! You can't get much more in the following of Jesus example than this Song, or 'Love is the Answer" or "Healing" ,or "Change Myself", plus more I'm forgetting about here.. Heck I think "Sometimes I Don't Know What to Feel" is a very Christ.like song...To me he was just too good and never a sell out to be a household name..Kind would of ruined the little Secret Society of people that have been Todd Heads for years and years. And a blessing to the ones just discovering him!!!
Todd is an atheist, actually. 🙂
@@Helenstreet0209I doubt that seriously! Funny he has a picture of Jesus Christ on the cross, just as he is telling of the forming the paired down 4 member version of Utopia! It's on the little TV playing, as he is talking. It's on the TEPTAE video! Just one of many obvious and subliminal clues, he has in his song lyrics...If you don't get it, you were never supposed too!!! All part of the plan... Just because you don't believe, doesn't mean it's not TRUE!!!!!!!
Even though the lyrics might not be too much in sync with the plot, I can easily picture this being played in a scene from the 1994 classic Dumb & Dumber, since Rundgren was the film's composer. It just fits the atmosphere of the flick so much!
Love this Song!
Well true that. The Star Crowned One do hover us in this attitude ….Ones we know they know who we are.
woohoohooo... woohoohoohoohoo....
ILOVE this song!! 😉
Time wounds all heels
Hail to the Wizard.😊❤
✌️😊❤️🎗️🌟
pour lenny
Loved Todd for many years. ❤ I don't like Atheism.. So conflicting.. loving lyrics .. Anyone?? Something..??
Atheism is just a lack of belief in the existence of gods due to the lack of falsifiable evidence to support such beliefs. What is "conflicting" about that? It's actually quite straightforward to me.
You can see Todd def was influenced by Daryll Hall's voice when he produced their War Babies
Closests voice ever to Hall
It's the other way around--Daryl Hall was influenced by Todd Rundgren. Members of Todd's band, Utopia, performed on the album. Todd's vocal talents, and ability to play every instrument on his albums, (he has perfect pitch), was evident long before the War Babies album.
I just meant his voice in Healing here
When Todd did his pre War Babies early work he sounded far more like Laura Nyro in style, one of his own
formative influences of which there were many, everyone has impact on each other, its ALL the ways around, not just one way
The entire record is amazing
