SOMETIMES WHEN I GET TO THINKIN' (Buffy Saint-Marie) Buffy Sainte-Marie - 1965 Sometimes I recall what others have said Love is for lovers in love and full grown Life's for the living and death's for the dead And the depth of a heart is a fathom unknown Sometimes when I get to thinkin' about you And all the things that we've never said To each other, it seems such a shame to go blue When there's so many years to lie silent and dead I know you know all about life You know I know nothing at all Still why should I ever feel blue When the blink of your eye makes me glad I'm so small Think of the years before we were a pair Years lived apart we spent learning to farm Sowing and growing and learning to care For ourselves and preparing for each other's arms Love is a flower, blooms when we're too young Pluck it it's gone, tended it grows We've been tending since the first sprout was sprung To the most patient farmer the best harvest grows Sometimes I recall what others have said Love is for lovers in love and full grown Life's for the living and death's for the dead And the depth of a heart is a fathom unknown (Transcribed by Mel Priddle - April 2018)
