John Martyn - Sapphire lyrics

rate me

I watch the day go down

Sapphire

I watch my luck turn round

A high flyer

I threw my bones around

Sure fire

I watch the current run

Live wire

Clear blue

Too true

Clear blue

Too true.

I don't know what to do

I got no place to go

Oh the day I lost my sweet Sapphire

My precious gems are dust

There's nothing left to trust

Oh the days I'll miss sweet Sapphire.

I saw her running round

Sweet liar.

And I ran the garden path

Sweet briar

I did just what I could

So tired

I threw my keys away

With no desire

Clear blue

Too true.

I don't know what to do

I got no place to go

Oh the days I miss sweet Sapphire

My precious gems are dust

There's nothing left to trust

Oh the days I'll miss sweet Sapphire.

I got no place to go

I don't know what to do

Ooh, the dream about Sapphire

I don't know what to do

I got nowhere to go

I got no face to show without Sapphire.

My precious gems are dust

There's nothing left to trust

oh since the day I lost my sweet Sapphire

There's nothing I can trust

My precious gems are dust

Oh, the day I lost sweet Sapphire.

I don't know what to do

I don't know where to go

Oh the day I lost my sweet Sapphire.
