Ballad Of An Elder Woman (Album Version) - John Martyn[00:00:00]
Now woman don't you feel sad[00:00:19]
When you see your life go round[00:00:22]
And you realise you've been drinking[00:00:26]
All of your years like wine [00:00:28]
You're gambling with time and you[00:00:34]
Know you just can't win[00:00:37]
But still you feel that somehow[00:00:41]
You've just got to keep on trying[00:00:42]
And woman it's your heart I hear crying[00:00:48]
Now the young man by your side is your husband [00:00:59]
Or so you say[00:01:03]
In reality he's a link with a past you just can't replace[00:01:06]
You tell the world you're happy[00:01:14]
When you're lying in his arms[00:01:16]
Oh but his youth has made you hate to see his face[00:01:20]
And woman it's your heart I see crying[00:01:28]
Now you're standing like some tree oh [00:01:53]
And the blossom has blown away[00:01:56]
And the last leaf has gone crumbling[00:02:00]
Tumbling towards the ground[00:02:02]
You have nothing to teach me [00:02:07]
Just have nothing at all to say[00:02:10]
Except to keep on telling me about all the happiness[00:02:14]
That you do think you have found[00:02:17]
And woman it's your heart I see crying[00:02:21]
