grateful dead - blow away (live at knickerbocker arena, march 1990) lyrics

[verse 1]
a man and a woman come together as strangers
when they part they’re usually strangers still
it’s like a practical joke played on us by our maker
empty bottles that can’t be filled

[chorus]
baby, who’s to say it should have been different now that it’s done
baby, who’s to say that it should have been, anyway
baby, who’s to say that it even matters in the long run
give it just a minute
and it will blow away, blow away

[verse 2]
you fancy me to be the master of your feelings
you barely bruise me with your looks to k!ll
though i admit we were sometimes brutal in our dealings
i never held you against your will

[instrumental break]

[verse 3]
your case against me is so very clearly stated
i plead no contest, i just turn and i shrug
i’ve come to figure all importance overestimated
you must mean water when you get on your knees and beg me for blood

[outro]
like a feather in a whirlwind (blow away)
just as surely, as surely as the world spins (blow away)
oh, it’ll blow, it’ll blow, it’ll blow away (blow away)
ooh, it’ll blow, give it just a minute, give it just a minute
and it’ll blow away
give it just a, give it just a little minute now
and watch it blow, watch it blow away
let it blow, let it blow away
watch it blow, watch it blow, watch it blow away
wait a minute…
give me just a little piece of your time, baby
give me just a little second now
all i’m asking for is just a little minute
a minute ’til you listen, listen to, listen, listen to me close
come on, give me an ear
are you out there? can you hear me? let me know
you want love, you want love
you think you got love right here in your hand
you’re holding on tight to
you think you got love, you think you got love right here in your hand
and it’s like you wanna put it inside you
it’s like you wanna put it deep inside you
it’s like you wanna keep love in your heart
and the only way you know you’ll know to do is not to let it go
it’s like you think you’re in a cage, it’s a jail cell
it’s like you don’t think love can get past through ribs
it’s like you don’t think love can get out
get away from you as long as you hold it inside
but you’re wrong
the only thing you do is keep in that caged cell
keeping love out, keeping it out, keeping it away
you’ve gotta open up the door
you’ve gotta open up the door and let love in
let it come and go
do you wanna know love?
do you wanna know real love?
real love you don’t hold inside
real love you can let go
and it’ll come back, it’ll fly right back to you, yes it do
that’s real love
so help me out, help me out a minute
would you help me out?
sing it after me, i want real love
said i want real, real love
i want real, real, real love
i want real, real, real love, give me real love
real love, real, real, real, real love

okay, we’ll be back in just a little bit
