nick drake - river man (song lyrics)

Betty came by on her way
Said she had a word to say
About things today and fallen leaves
Said she hadnt heard the news
Hadnt had the time to choose
A way to lose but she believes
Gonna see the river man
Gonna tell him all I can
About the plan for lilac time
If he tells me all he knows
About the way his river flows
And all night shows in summertime
Betty said she prayed today
For the sky to blow away
Or maybe stay she wasnt sure
For when she thought of summer rain
Calling for her mind again
She lost the pain and stayed for more
Gonna see the river man
Gonna tell him all I can
About the ban on feeling free
If he tells me all he knows
About the way his river flows
I dont suppose its meant for me
Oh how they come and go
