(Sandy Denny)

Love, oh, don't we know

How can the river flow

Without you

Warming like the sand

Upon the land

How can we doubt you?

Dark to me the night

And dim the morning light tomorrow

How can we not see

The simple melody of sorrow?

Oh, to be with you

Oh, to see them through

Those days when we think you are gone

They are so lonesome and so long

What shall we do?

Parting comes to soon

My weary tune

Has lost its pleasure

Waiting for the time

This lonely wine

Has lost its treasure

Dark to me the night

And dim the morning light tomorrow

How could I not see

The simple melody of sorrow?

Oh, to be with you

Oh, to see them through

These days when I think you are gone

They are so lonesome and so long

What shall we do?
