NICK DRAKE
Sweet strings
Plucked with delicate hands
Surgical precision
Soulful expression
Melodic serenade
Haunting vocals
Filled with mortal pain
Few could understand
I do
She chose another
Your fragile maestro mind
Simply snapped from the heartache
Brilliance
Sheer genius
“Pink Moon”
“Things behind the sun”
“River Man”
“Cello Song”
You stir my soul deeply
Rest in peace dear Minstrel
Brothers are we
“So forget this cruel world
where I belong
I'll just sit and wait
And sing my song.
And if one day you should see me in the crowd
Lend a hand and lift me
To your place in the cloud.”
