May You Never (alternative take) Songtext
von John Martyn

May you never lay your head down without a hand to hold
May you never make your bed out in the cold

You're just like a great strong brother of mine and you know that I love you true
You never talk dirty behind my back and I know there are those that do
Won't you please? Won't you please? Won't you bear in mind?
Love is a lesson to learn in our time
Won't you please? Won't you please? Won't you bear it in mind for me?

May you never lay your head down without a hand to hold
May you never make your bed out in the cold

And you're just like a good close sister me and you know that I love you true
You hold no blade to stab me in my back and I know that there's some that do
Won't you please? Won't you please? Won't you bear in mind?
Love is a lesson to learn in our time
Won't you please? Won't you please? Won't you bear it in mind for me?


May you never lay your head down without a hand to hold
May you never make your bed out in the cold

You're just like a great strong brother of mine and you know that I love you true
You never talk dirty behind my back and I know that there's those that do
Won't you please? Won't you please? Won't you bear in mind?
Love is a lesson to learn in our time
Won't you please? Won't you please? Won't you bear it in mind for me?

May you never lose your temper if you get hit in a bar room fight
May you never lose your woman overnight

May you never lay your head down without a hand to hold
May you never make your bed out in the cold

May you never lose your temper if you get hit in a bar room fight
May you never lose your woman overnight
May you never lose your woman overnight
May you never lose your woman overnight
