Jeff Bridges - Maybe I Missed the Point [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

I know somebody whose life is tough
I help a little but it isn't enough
Cause I go spend money on stupid stuff
When I know he's strugglin' to stay above
And I have so many chances to be
The hero I believe's inside of me
But I get busy and I get distracted
And I do nothing when I could've acted

(chorus)
I laid low when I could've stood high
I said nothing when I should've asked why
Saw something I might have done and I didn't
A chance to speak my truth and I hid it
Inside I'd like to believe I'm cool
Easy to love and hard to fool
But I know there's more I could have enjoyed
Sometimes I find myself thinking
Maybe I missed the point
So many times I've turned down love
Stayed in the dark when I could of lit it up
But every time I did take a chance
It makes me happy when I'm looking back
I'm not saying my whole life feels like a joke
But I've been a master of mirrors and smoke
And I don't want to live no more without you

(chorus)
