The Thoughts of Mary Jane (arr. Richard Hewson) Songtext
von Nick Drake

Who can know
The thoughts of Mary Jane
Why she flies
Or goes out in the rain

Where she′s been
And who she's seen
In her journey to the stars

Who can know
The reason for her smile
What are her dreams
When they′ve journeyed for a mile


The way she sings
And her brightly colored rings
Make her the princess of the sky

Who can know
What happens in her mind
Did she come from a strange world
Leave her mind behind

Her long lost sighs
And her brightly colored eyes
Tell her story to the wind

Who can know
The thoughts of Mary Jane
Why she flies
Goes out in the rain


Where she's been
And who she's seen
In her journey to the stars
