Lyrics John Martyn

John Martyn

Our Love

Oh baby, take a look

Take a look in your heart for me, baby

Baby take a look, take a good look, baby

Baby take a look in your heart.

Our love

Once was sweeter than the April rain

But now I have to beg before you even say my name

Our love

Once was warmer than a summer's day

And now I have to ask before you even want to look my way.

People go talking

People go talking around

Putting us down, putting us down

Putting us down, putting us down

People go talking

But they don't talk to me

I know they just don't see.

Our love

Once was you and me against this world

made a man from a boy

and made a woman from a little girl

Our love

Once was deeper than the darkest blue could be

Now I find

I have to search my mind

To find the smallest trace of you in me.

Lovers part

You can read about it

can read about it every day

Read about it every day

Lovers part

Then they just walk away.

Our love

Once was sweeter than the April rain to me

Now I find I have to beg before you call my name

Please call my name, please call my name, and

Baby take a look, take a good look, baby

Baby take a look in your heart

Baby take a look, take a good look, baby

Baby take a look in your heart

Baby take a look, baby take a look

Baby take a look in your heart for me

Ah baby, please baby.
