|
I saw Nick Drake |
|
At the corner of time and motion |
|
I caught his eye |
|
And he caught mine |
|
I said \"You're tall.\" |
|
He said \"No taller than tomorrow's ocean.\" |
|
I saw Nick Drake |
|
And he was fine |
|
I saw Nick Drake |
|
As we were carrying the ice together |
|
I saw his face |
|
Beneath the glass |
|
The net was gone |
|
And all the strawberries of English weather |
|
I saw him pass |
|
Right through this place |
|
I saw Nick Drake |
|
The habits of a lifetime |
|
Will lay you low |
|
Into your grave |
|
And when you're gone |
|
You take the whole world with you |
|
I saw Nick Drake |
|
I saw him wave |
|
And we're in bloom |
