Lyrics John Martyn

John Martyn

Golden Girl

I see in the green stream that meanders round my mind

A girl standing with arms so warm and kind

She reaches out, she calls my name

But I just can't get through

I know she's waiting in a land of sunny rain

And I know that I'll find my girl and it's there I will remain

I'll lay right down and there I'll stay

'Cause there is paradise

I've often felt her breathing as I rolled around your streets

And so I look around me but we never chance to meet

The golden girl with eyes of green

A girl just meant for me

I see in the green stream that meanders round my mind

A girl standing with arms so warm and kind

She's standing there, she calls my name

But I just can't get through
