donovan - the way
I stay behind I walk ahead
Apart yet a part of ev'rything
Nothing done and all is well
Never used yet always full
Out of nothing comes the one
Out of one comes the two
Out of two comes three
Out of three comes all things
The more it moves the more it yields
The valley spirit never dies
The root of heaven and of earth
Empty now of ev'rything
>From above it is not bright
>From below it is not dark
You cannot see when it began
Follow it there is no end
It has no aim it is so small
It has no name it is so great
It is not seen it is not heard
Nothing done or left undone
The weak can overcome the strong
The supple overcomes the stiff
Ev'ryone knows this well
yet so few can practice it
Out of nothing comes the one
Out of one comes the two
Out of two comes three
Out of three comes all things
donovan - 8 little fishes
I'm looking over, under and in
Scrutinizing, analyzing.
Looking for the goof in the roof
Knowing full well only time will tell
Won't you help me if you can ?
Tryin' hard to be a man
And as I leave my tender youth
To seek no more the truth
But grow it...
EIGHT LITTLE FISHES fry me
Aubergine eyes
Shagged properly
EIGHT LITTLE FISHES fry me
Aubergine eyes
Shagged properly
Won't you help me if you can ?
Trying hard to be a man
And as the day rolls into night
We'll taste the sweet delight
Together...
EIGHT LITTLE FISHES fry me
Aubergine eyes
Shagged properly
EIGHT LITTLE FISHES fry me
Aubergine eyes
Shagged properly
EIGHT LITTE FISHES fry me
Aubergine eyes

donovan - a funny man
One day a funny kind of man came walking down this street,
he wore a shoe upon his head and hats upon his feet.
He raised the shoe and smiled at me, his manners were polite,
But never had I seen before such a funny sounding sight.
He said, "Allow me to present your highness wit h a rose"
And taking out a currant bun, he held it to my nose.
I staggered back against the wall and then I answered, "Well,
I never saw a rose with such a funny looking smell.
He then began tol sing a song -mm - and sat down on the ground,
You never heard in all your life such a funny feeling sound.
"My friend, why do you werar two hats upon your feet ?" I said,
He turned the other way and hopped home on his head
donovan - a soldier s dream
Oh, the drums are so mournful
My dear, oh, my love
As my thought's they are turning your way
Where are the eyes I beheld with my own
On that long ago lazy day?
Dead are the leaves
On the stark battlefield
The stench of the flesh sickens me
I slept soaking wet and the worms ate my bread
And the moaning of men filled the air
Oh, green are the leaves
Of the old apple tree
Those sweet perfumed blossoms of spring
Entwined in your hair the smile in your eye
A soft bled of grass for a ring
Warm are the loaves
That cool on the sill
To the song of the clear, trickling stream
The good, clean smell of the rough woven sheets
The song of the children at play
Oh, the drums are so mournful
My dear, oh, my love
As my thought's they are turning your way
Where are the eyes I beheld with my own?
On that long ago lazy day
On that long ago lazy day.
donovan - a sunny day
From the album the hurdy gurdy man
Sunny day while away the afternoon
Cutting nettles that are hiding petals pink
>From the river drink.
Bluebells, wood dells where dwells a squirrel
Who slinks along branched patterns heightens call of coaltit small
Hover over river.
Diving, writhing, gnattring chiff chaff chattering
Woodpecker staggering hammering
Exaggerating off his find.
Do da do
Sunny day while away the afternoon
Cutting nettles that are hiding petals pink
>From the river drink.
Bluebells, wood dells where dwells a squirrel
Who slinks along branched patterns heightens call of coaltit small
Hover over river.
donovan - a well known has been
Tonight my life is heavy, I'm weak and down at heel
The prisoner in the dungeon will know just how I feel.
I'm a well known has-been, a well known has-been,
I've got a brand on me.
When I look at my tomorrows, sorrow's all I see,
Sorrow's all I see, sorrow's all I see, sorrow's all I see.
How sad my disposition, how long can it I bear ?
How deep my melancholy, can anybody care ?
For the well known has-been, the well known has-been,
I've got a brand on me, yeah
When I look at my tomorrows, sorrow's all I see,
Sorrow's all I see, sorrow's all I see, sorrow's all I see.
Well known has-been
Well known has-been
Well known has-been, ooh, ooh, ooh
I pretend I'm unaffected by the chains that bear me down
And when only those who love me can see behind the frown.
I'm the well known has-been, the well known has-been,
I got a brand on me.
When I look at my tomorrows, sorrow's all I see,
Sorrow's all I see, sorrow's all I see, sorrow's all I see.
>From these broken days of anguish, some day soon I'm gonna rise,
I'm gonna raise my head to Heaven, I'm gonna fly the starry skies.
And the well known has-been, the well known has-been,
I'll lose the brand on me, yeah.
Today's all I see, today's all I see, today's all I see
donovan - age of treason
On a lone and windy hilltop beneath a roof of tin
In a little wallpapered bedroom I done my growin'.
'Twas there I dreamt my dreams, I hung my jeans
And wandered through my puberty as all do.
My mother was a tight nut bound up with false guilt
Strapped up in her fearing wall she had built.
The independent girl in a dark and cruel world
She'd lost the way to say, "OK, now lay back".
We disagreed on most things, I shouted peace and love
The family is mankind, the symbol of the dove.
She only saw the surface of things before her face
But I was young and argued on for hours.
My father he liked poetry, a scholar he might have made.
Had nothing, born a poor boy barefoot and underpaid
So the man worked with his hands up and down the land,
His dreams forgot he thought that I must follow.
With his marks as worker's wisdom he'd read a thing or two
He once had been a Mason but he never followed through.
Always kind and thoughtful, smelling of mushy oil
And he read me poetry of visionaries.
I flunk my way to college, a looser kind of school
But we bobbed and played time arty, feeling cool
Just to live an artists diggin' the ravin' scene
Reading Kerouac and Ginsberg well deuced.
I was not academic, Art and English neat,
The history of mankind I liked that a bit.
And what was I to do ? The choices they were few,
I done right disgrace to the working classes
I done right disgrace to the working classes
I done right disgrace to the working classes
I done right disgrace to the working classes
donovan - appearances
Can't get the shake together with the rock
Movin' her body before she can talk
People say you get nowhere till you walk
But you feel and you hurt and you love
Yes you feel and you hurt and you love
You got the legs to strut it on down
Parade your pretty self in the town
Won't be too long now and you'll get around
For to feel and to hurt and to love
For to feel and to hurt and to love
Don't let appearances fool you
Life's not what the rule book tells
Don't let appearances fool you
Feel the vibes as well
Feel the vibes as well
Now you're a woman, you must use it
Well
Shakin' your pills at the wedding bell
People say you get nowhere till you
Smell
But you feel and you hurt and you love
You do feel and do hurt you do love
donovan - as i recall it
As I recall it, the sun was high,
Yellow in the blue, blue sky.
You couldn't quite make out this boy,
He used life as a toy.
In a Marie-Antoinette room
We were introduced soon,
I was me and you were you,
How do you do ?
Raggedy and tousle-haired
He looked as though he never cared
To run a comb where a comb should run,
Freckles from the sun.
Many good times we have had,
We been happy, we been sad,
But I think we both feel glad
That this life is so mad, mad, mad.
As I recall it, the sun was high,
If I remember, the sun was high,
You couldn't quite make out this boy,
He used life as a toy.
Many good times we have had,
We been happy, baby, we been sad,
But I think we both feel glad
That this life is so mad.
As I recall it, the sun was high,
Yellow in the blue, blue sky,
You couldn't quite make out this boy,
He used life as a toy.
Yeah
donovan - astral angel
Domes upon the Desert
Shimmering through the haze
Sunset in the Desert
Listening to the crickets as they phaze
Lights move through the heavens
Colours glowing by
See the Astral Angels
Riding silver stallions in the sky
Astral Angel
You're no earthly bird I can tell
Astral Angel
I would be your friend if you fell
Astral Angel
Dancing through the dreamtime
You harmonise with the song
Fading through the dreamtime
Teach me how to dance and sing along
Astral Angel
You're no earthly bird I can tell
Astral Angel
I would be your friend if you fell
Astral Angel
Astral Angel
You're no earthly bird I can tell
Astral Angel
I would be your friend if you fell
Astral Angel
donovan - atlantis
The continent of Atlantis was an island
Which lay before the great flood
In the area we now call the Atlantic Ocean.
So great an area of land,
That from her western shores
Those beautiful sailors journeyed
To the South and the North Americas with ease,
In their ships with painted sails.
To them East Africa was a neighbour,
Across a short strait of sea miles.
The great Egyptian age is
But a remnant of The Atlantian culture.
The antediluvian kings colonised the world
All the Gods who play in the mythological dramas
In all legends from all lands were from far Atlantis.
Knowing her fate,
Atlantis sent out ships to all corners of the Earth.
On board were the Twelve:
The poet, the physician, The farmer, the scientist,
The magician and the other so-called Gods of our legends.
Though Gods they were -
And as the elders of our time choose to remain blind
Let us rejoice
And let us sing
And dance and ring in the new Hail Atlantis!
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be,
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be,
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be.
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be,
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be.
My antediluvian baby, oh yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah,
I wanna see you some day
My antediluvian baby, oh yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah,
My antediluvian baby,
My antediluvian baby, I love you, girl,
Girl, I wanna see you some day.
My antediluvian baby, oh yeah
I wanna see you some day, oh My antediluvian baby.
My antediluvian baby, I wanna see you
My antediluvian baby, gotta tell me where she gone
I wanna see you some day Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up,
oh yeah Oh club club, down down, yeah
My antediluvian baby, oh yeah yeah yeah yeah
donovan - aye my love
Though you say that the sorrow is all yours
And the pleasure is mine
Once we were, now we're not together here,
I'm not half as happy.
Aye, my love, it's hard, my love,
Be strong, my love, be strong.
Though you say that the sorrow is all yours
And the pleasure is mine
Once we were, now we're not together here,
I'm not half as happy.
Aye, my love, it's hard, my love,
Be strong, my love, be strong
donovan - barabajagal
She came, she came to meet a man, she found an angel.

Fine fine, fine fine Acelandine be prepared for her.
Tea tea, tea tea to make her free while incense burned.
In love pool eyes float feathers after the struggle.
The hopes burst and shot joy all through the mind
Sorrow more distant than a star.
Multi colour run down over your body,
Then the liquid passing all into all
Love is hot truth is molten.
True true, true true the song he sang her while the leaves cooked
Ting ting, ting little bell he rang her, sleepily she looked.
He filled, he filled a leather cup, holding her gaze
She took, she took a little sip while this song he sang:
Goo goo, goo goo Barabajagal was my name now,
Goo goo, goo goo Barabajagal was my name now.

donovan - be mine
Stars 'round the fair moon veil their own shining
when She's full on the earth with the light of Her silver
Set you to rest on the softest of cushions
the black trance of night on our eyes like the river
Gentle the steps of the lovely young women
dancing in tune 'round the intimate shrine
Treading the soft smooth bloom of the grasses
Be mine and I will be thine
Be mine, be mine and I will be thine
Be mine and I will be thine
Be mine, be mine and I will be thine
Be mine and I will be thine
Venus is flashing aqua-marina
Jupiter rising into his sign
Here in the dusky rose of the dawning
Be mine and I will be thine
donovan - belated forgiveness plea
As a pilgrim I did go
To a land that I did know,
To the shores of Trist la Cal,
To see if I still felt
The same.
And the sun blazed madly insane,
But the seagulls they have gone,
The seagulls they have gone.
I searched the sand for sound,
My eyes forced to the ground.
The wind it laughed wild and shrill,
My heart it tried to spill
Its crazy tears.
There is nothing left for me now
For the seagulls, they have gone,
The seagulls, they have gone.
I stand both young and old
But the winds of time blow cold.
This much you must believe:
It pains to see you grieve.
I pity you,
But there is nothing that I can do
For the seagulls, they have gone,
The seagulls, they have gone.
As a pilgrim I did go
To a land that I did know,
To the shores of Trist la Cal,
To see if I still felt
The same.
And the sun blazed madly insane,
But the seagulls, they have gone,
The seagulls, they have gone
