To me, this music is expression of one of the probably most fragile and beautiful souls that has ever lived. He was just speaking so much his very own language coming from the bottom of his heart.
Why have I never heard of this guy - he has a great sound, great lyrics... haunting quality to this type of music. Very enchanting...
I love his photos - he is very expressive...
The thing is....the thing is Nick Drake must've felt so trapped, look at these images, the downward expressions in all... A man like this could have easily disappeared beneath a sea of anonymity, he thought he had no VALUE and yet LOOK at the musical genius before you. Truly inspiring stuff!
Time has told me
You’re a rare, rare find
A troubled cure
For a troubled mind
And time has told me
Not to ask for more
For someday our Ocean
Will find it’s shore
So I’ll leave the ways of making me be
What I really don’t want to be
Leave the ways that are making me love
What I really don’t want to love
Time has told me
You came with the dawn
A soul with no footprint
A rose with no thorn
Your tears they tell me
There’s really no way
Of ending your troubles
With things you can say
And time will tell you
To stay by my side
To keep on trying
‘til theres no more to hide
So leave the ways that are making you be
What you really don’t want to be
Leave the ways that are making you love
What you really don’t want to love
Time has told me
You’re a rare, rare find
A troubled cure
For a troubled mind
And time has told me
Not to ask for more
For someday our ocean
Will find its shore
