Nick Drake Lyrics


His room is quiet now. The bed is neatly made. A picture of
a rough-and-tumble sea storm is framed over the bed. His
old school desk, complete with coffee stain and pen, is
pressed against a far wall. Volumes of Chaucer, Blake,
Flaubert and Shakespeare peer down from a corner bookshelf.
An old-fashioned radio sits ready and lonesome. His shirts
are carefully folded in his dresser; his black sportcoat
hangs loosely in his closet. Nick Drake isn't coming home
tonight.

His songs cast an eerie spell on first-time listeners. They
hold More...

Review about Nick Drake songs
Deceptively simple | Reviewer: Anonymous
    ------ About the song Know performed by Nick Drake

This song says more in four lines than most do in 40. Nick Drake was a *hell* of a songwriter and it's a crime he's not more well-known.

My personal interpretation of this song is that it's about unconditional love and perhaps acceptance of that which comes a little bit too late.

    ------ About the song From the morning performed by Nick Drake

I found Nick and his music while searching for melancholy songs, and I recognized this song immediately from the AT&T commercial.

To me, it's like he's telling us, "Look, it's too late for me, but you all go on and appreciate all this. Live your lives, love your loves, and lift one for me. Be happy if you can."

Godspeed, Nick, and thanks for the beauty you added. Your life was too short, and you gave more than you took. We're grateful.

great... | Reviewer: kub386

    ------ About the song From the morning performed by Nick Drake

'From the morning' is more than just music to me. It sounds crazy but it is. Nick Drake was a true gift from God and his music stirs the soul like no other I've heard. Simple, pure, fragile and beautiful. I hope Nick knows how much his music means to people. Thanks Nick.

ONE OF NICKS HAPPIEST SONGS | Reviewer: jOHN e
    ------ About the song Northern sky performed by Nick Drake

I've been a big fan of Nick Drake for many years. Initially I think I was most interested in his guitar playing. Then there came along a second phase where my fascination centered on his songs. Northern Sky is a great one. We all know what happened to Nick but look at what he left behind...
This song is about the excitment/euphoria that comes at the beginning of a relationship. Drink it in. Give thanks. Etc.

    ------ About the song Northern sky performed by Nick Drake

I first heard this track on an island sampler EL PEA in the early 70's and it has been a track that I have always remembered. Although it is a wonderful track with haunting melody there also seems a certain sadness to it which obviously came from Nicks personality as he went on to commit suicide...such a shame. If you haven't heard it try to get a copy !!!!

ummm, maybe not | Reviewer: Anonymous
    ------ About the song Harvest breed performed by Nick Drake

nick never really wrote songs about much of anything really towards the end. he wrote lyrics that would compliment the melodies instead of the other way around. at least, thats what his sister said.

    ------ About the song From the morning performed by Nick Drake

Nick Drake was severely depressed- this song is a beautifully poetic metaphor for suicide. Nick Drake is saying that life was a miraculous gift. Being born he depicts as the morning, but for him, "night" is just as beautiful. He was ready to die. This song was written as his depression worsened, and then he killed himself not long after at the age of 26.

    ------ About the song Things behind the sun performed by Nick Drake

It has been difficult to put in words the power of Drake's lyrics and his voice. He is not a fabulous singer but has such a resounding voice :). When I listen to his songs, once in a while, I just can't help but say - "O Nick!"
One thing that has struck me about this particular song is the title - "Things behind the sun"
It could mean a higher being or his imagination looking at us (humans) and laughing his head off.. It has been accepted that he was a troubled person but I can't help but imagine himself laughing at people around him.

ATT commercial too | Reviewer: Davey Drake
    ------ About the song From the morning performed by Nick Drake

I heard it on that ATT ad too. It made my shoes stand up on my back. My arms wilted and my hair caught on fire on my toes. So I went to the web with the only lyrics I got from it and tried "From the Morning" BING Mystery solved. YAY
