Lyrics:
...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
No
guitar tab entered.
