Please help me find this song

Hello all,

I really need help figuring out the name of a PF song and which album it's on so I can buy it. All I know is the chords & tune, which can't help me here, and a tiny fraction of lyric. I can tell you I think the chorus begins "I'll get by in my own way" and also contains the words "new day." I remember hearing it almost 20 years ago & I swear it was Floyd or one of the members. Can anyone help me?

Thanks so much,
DJ

Re: Please help me find this song

Sounds like it might be "Fearless" off the Meddle album.


Fearless

You say the hill's to steep to climb, climbing
you say you'd like to see me try, climbing
you pick the place and I'll choose the time
and I'll climb the hill in my own way
just wait a while for the right day
and as I rise above the tree-line and the clouds
I look down, hearing the sounds of the things you've said today

Fearlessly the idiot faced the crowd, smiling
merciless the magistrate turns round, frowning
and who's the fool who wears the crown
go down in your own way
and every day is the right day
and as you rise above the fear-lines in his crown
you look down, hearing the sound of the faces in the crowd

Not to be nitpicking but this area is saved especially for questions about THE SITE and forum, not PF related topics.

Hey Nitpicker, guests can only post in the FAQ forum if I'm not mistaken. This is why.

Thank you

Good morning,

Thanks so much, Stratman. That was it! I'll be waiting at Best Buy when they open today.

To any who were offended by my post-out-of-place, I apologize. I was innocently seeking advice from those who are obviously more knowledgeable than I and honestly intended no harm. I had no idea it would case such a stir. I stand educated and will refrain from further posting on your site.

Thank you for the hospitality and the education,
DJ

Re: Please help me find this song

I beleave that the song you are looking i for is a song in the Album "Dark side of the moon", it could be eather one "Eclips"All that you touch
All that you see
All that you taste
All you feel.
All that you love
All that you hate
All you distrust
All you save.
All that you give
All that you deal
All that you buy,
beg, borrow or steal.
All you create
All you destroy
All that you do
All that you say.
All that you eat
And everyone you meet
All that you slight
And everyone you fight.
All that is now
All that is gone
All that's to come
and everything under the sun is in tune
but the sun is eclipsed by the moon.


Or it could be the song Breathe,
Breathe, breathe in the air.
Don't be afraid to care.
Leave but don't leave me.
Look around and choose your own ground.

Long you live and high you fly
And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
And all you touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be.

Run, rabbit run.
Dig that hole, forget the sun,
And when at last the work is done
Don't sit down it's time to dig another one.

For long you live and high you fly
But only if you ride the tide
And balanced on the biggest wave
You race towards an early grave.

I could be wrong but i hope i helped
