Joey - Nick Drake

Joey will come to see your flowers

Joey will come to while away your hours

But she will tell you you’re not so good for her

She wouldn’t be there if it could be that you were

Joey has loved but never shown her tears

So she may laugh in the autumn of your years

And when you’re with her, you’ll wonder if it’s true

All they said of a world without you

Where she may come from

Where she may go

Who she may run from

No one will know

Why she was late may trouble you some

Still you wait for Joey to come

Joey will come when once more it looks like snow

Joey will come when it’s really time to go

And you may smile when you find that you’ve been wrong

You thought you’d found her but she knew you all along
