Nick Drake(1948-1974) was a British singer-songwriterknown for his gentle, autumnal songs and his virtuoso right hand finger picking technique. Although he recorded only three albums, critics and fellow musicians held his work in very high esteem. Drake failed to find a wide audience during his lifetime, which fed his severe clinical depression. Since his death, however, Drake's music has gained a significant cult following. Drake's father worked as an engineer.

To The Garden Lyrics
Nick Drake
In the bright red sky
In the heat of an evening
When only prisoners sleep
She said she couldnt
Come to the garden
See an old man wheel
She said her dreams
What too far to be thought of
As scars too white to view
She said she couldnt
Come to the garden
See a blind man kneel
She sailed away
To a blue horizon
In floating thoughts shed sway
She said she couldnt
Come to the garden
See an old man pray
She wished them luck
As they left on their journey
Maybe shed join them soon
But she lost her grip
At the tip of lifes finger
Went home and worshipped the moon
