Back Down The River - John Martyn

For more than a rhyme or two, your time belongs to me

Rowing back down my river

Chasing my tail to the sea;

Rowing back down my river

Trying my best to be me

Watching your crazy ways and all the lazy days

Digging you more and more, the more I see your face

Rowing back down my river

Trying my best to be free;

Rowing back down my river

Chasing my tail to the sea

Watching the simple things to help me grow along

Loving the notes you bring to help me sing my song

Rowing back down my river

Trying my best to be me;

Rowing back down my river

Singing my songs to the sea

I know that we’re going to be together, you and me

For more than a time or two, your rhymes belong to me

Rowing back down my river

Chasing my tail to the sea;

Rowing back down my river

Trying my best to be me
