garden state - one of these things first lyrics
song by nick drake
i could have been a sailor, could have been a cook
a real live lover, could have been a book.
i could have been a signpost, could have been a clock
as simple as a kettle, steady as a rock.
i could be
here and now
i would be, i should be
but how?
i could have been
one of these things first
i could have been
one of these things first.
i could have been your pillar, could have been your door
i could have stayed beside you, could have stayed for more.
could have been your statue, could have been your friend,
a whole long lifetime could have been the end.
i could be yours so true
i would be, i should be through and through
i could have been
one of these things first
i could have been
one of these things first.
i could have been a whistle, could have been a flute
a real live giver, could have been a boot.
i could have been a signpost, could have been a clock
as simple as a kettle, steady as a rock.
i could be even here
i would be, i should be so near
i could have been
one of these things first
i could have been
one of these things first.
