Lyrics John Martyn

John Martyn

One Day Without You

One day without you

And I feel just like I'm somebody else

One day without you

And there's a fear there might be somebody else.

You know that I'd like to keep you

Keep you to myself, and by my side

You know I'd like to keep you

Just like I know it's wrong to try

Just like my babies were born to cry

Every bird that sings is born to fly.

One day without you

And I feel just like some lost ship at sea

One day without you

And every friend I meet seems strange to me.

You know that I'd like to keep you

Keep you to myself, by my side

You know that I like to keep you

Just like I know it's wrong to try

Just like my babies were born to cry

Every bird that sings is born to fly.

One day without you

I feel a hole just where my heart should be

One day without you

And I feel just how sad my life could be.

You know I'd like to keep you

Keep you to myself, keep you by my side

You know I like to keep you

Just like I know it's wrong to try

Just like my babies were born to cry

Every bird that sings deserves to fly...
