Lyrics John Martyn

John Martyn

May You Never

May you never lay your head down without a hand to hold

May you never make your bed out in the cold

You're just like a great and strong brother to me and you know that I love you true

You never talk dirty behind my back and I know there are those that do

Won't you please, won't you please, won't you bear in mind

Love is a lesson to learn in our time

Please won't you please won't you bear in mind for me

May you never lay your head down without a hand to hold

May you never make your bed out in the cold

and your just like a good close sister me and you know that I love you true

You hold no blade to stab me in the back and I know there're those who do

Won't you please won't you please won't you bear in mind

Love is a lesson to learn in our time

Won't you please won't you please won't you bear it mind for me

May you never lay your head down without a hand to hold

May you never make your bed out in the cold

You're just like a great and strong brother of mine and you know that I love you true

You never talk dirty behind my back and I know there are those that do

Won't you please, won't you please, won't you bear in mind

Love is a lesson to learn in our time

Won't you please won't you please won't you bear it mind for me

May you never lose your temper if you get hit in a bar room fight

May you never lose your woman over night

May you never lay your head down without a hand to hold

May you never make your bed out in the cold

May you never lose your temper if you get hit in a bar room fight

May you never lose your woman over night
