Got a message in my headthat the papers had all goneRichard Manuel is deadAnd the daylight's coming onI've been wandering through the darknow I'm standing on the lawnIf I could give all my love to youI could justify myselfbut I'm just not coming throughYou're a pill to ease the painof all the stupid things I doI'm an anchor on the lineof a clock that tells the timethat is running out on youWell it was cold when i wokeand the day was halfway doneNearly spring in San Franciscobut I cannot feel the sunyou were sleeping next to mebut I knew that you'd be goneIf I could give all my love to youI could justify myselfbut I'm just not coming throughYou're a pill to ease the painof all the stupid things I doI'm an anchor on the lineof a clock that tells the timethat is running out on youTake some time before you gothink of monday's coming downand the people that you knewThe ones that aren't aroundyou've been fading day to dayI've been moving town to townIf I could give all my love

to youI could justify myselfbut I'm just not coming throughYou're a pill to ease the painof all the stupid things i doI'm an anchor on the lineof a clock that tells the timethat is running out on you[2X]
