NICK DRAKE - Three hours lyrics

rate me

Three hours from sundown

Jeremy flies

Hoping to keep

The sun from his eyes

East from the city

And down to the cave

In search of a master

In search of a slave.

Three hours from London

Jacomo's free

Taking his woes

Down to the sea

In search of a lifetime

To tell when he's home

In search of a story

That's never been known.

Three hours from speaking

Everyone's flown

Not wanting to be

Seen on their own

Three hours is needed

To leave from them all

Three hours to wonder

And three hours to fall.

Three hours from sundown

Jeremy flies

Hoping to keep

The sun from his eyes

East from the city

And down to the cave

In search of a master

In search of a slave.
