Fly Lyrics

Nick Drake

Please give me a second grace
Please give me a second face
Ive fallen far down
The first time around
Now I just sit on the ground in your way
Now if its time to recompense for whats done
Come, come sit down on the fence in the sun
And the clouds will roll by
And well never deny
Its really too hard for to fly.
Please tell me your second name
Please play me your second game
Ive fallen so far
For the people you are
I just need your star for a day.
So come, come ride in my my street-car by the bay
For now I must know how fine you are in your way
And the sea sure as i
But she wont need to cry
For its really too hard for to fly.
