Barclay James Harvest - Poor Man's Moody Blues Lyrics






All the nights that I've missed you
All the nights without end
All the times that I've called you
Only needing a friend
Now your eyes shine with beauty
That I missed long ago
Guess the truth is I love you
I can't say any more

'Cause I need you
Yes I want you
Yes I love you

As I look from my window
To the streets where you stand
I am gazing through dark glass
We can't walk hand in hand
Though your friends try to tell me
Though your friends you defend
They keep my heart from your heart
We must be in the end

'Cause I love you
Yes I need you
Yes I love you

All the nights that I've missed you
All the nights without end
All the times that I've called you
Only needing a friend
Now your eyes shine with beauty
That I missed long ago
Guess the truth is I love you
I can't say any more

'Cause I need you
Yes I want you
Yes I love you

'Cause I need you
Yes I want you
Yes I love you, love you
Love you

    Love to this song.. ♡
    Greetings from Montenegro.

  39. R.... S....

    Magnifique (Gone To Earth 1977)

    R.... S....

    Gone to Earth (1949) Jennifer Jones.

  40. L.... S....

    I prefer this to 'Nights in White Satin' — it may have been inspired by the former, but to me it's just more evocative and interesting — reminding me of days long gone (sorry Justin!)

    L.... S....

    merci à JUSTIN un fan!.

    L.... S....

    Not inspired by 'Night In White Satin' , more a reaction to some (ignorant) peoples labelling of BJH as a poor mans moody blues. Personally never rated the Moody Blues very highly, maybe it was because BJH were Northern lads who spoke a language I understood and loved the landscape I knew.

  41. C.... W....

    Es gibt viele Meisterwerke in der Musikgeschichte. Dieses gehört definitiv dazu. Musik, die es heute so nicht mehr gibt.

    C.... W....

    Wie recht du damit hast!

  42. G.... B....

    Relax, just close your eyes and listen

  43. s.... r....

    I lost my virginity w this one😂

  44. R.... Y....

    menyentuh, lagu lama, pertama dengerin ini lagu tahun 1982. saat masih sekolah di Bandung

  45. S.... S....

    Sometimes you just have to talk and not wait for a miracle to come.
    Eva I don’t know if we could ever be together, but I’m too shy to even ask you for a night out.

  46. E.... H....

    I still remember trying to find this song i did not know the title to.. for a long time and then told my friend about it and he suggested Moody Blue's Nights in white satan, which is a different beautiful song, and then go into BJH and. . . Voila, Magical... Gone to earth..

  47. J.... W....

    Saw them do this,at one of there concerts,unreal

  48. p.... p....

    from 2:44 to 3:47 best melody ever

    p.... p....

    I quite agree with you..

  49. z.... ....

    THE lovesong

  50. J.... R....

    Thank you !!!

  51. T.... ....

    For my 18th birthday, my boyfriend sent me this song. I was working in Germany at the time. Next April we will have been married happily for 40 years. Thank you Barclay James Harvest! Through your music, we communicated,

  52. M.... G....

    epic song....

  53. g.... ....

    Some of the most amazing songs get forgotten. This one is the case.

  54. S.... -....

    This song was on an old tape from my best friend's father, he died and she was listening to this sad song and I just loved it and it will always be special for me, because it was in my youth 20 years ago and I was so in love with a sweet boy, but we were just friends and I cried so much. I was looking for this song so many years, because there was no title on the tape. For me it was just the unknown song from unknown person. Now I found it here.... Wow, I knew some other songs from BJH but I never thought that it was a song of BJH.... HEAVYYYYY. THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH FOR THIS ONE😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

    S.... -....

    I have a few "un amed" songs Im working through before dementia or something similar finally gets me...When I find a song it transports me back decades instantly.I have snippets of songs in my head....I keep searching

    S.... -....

    beautiful words love and light be with you .

  55. A.... ....

    34 years ago..1984..I was an officer at sea when I called the love of my life from a scabby bar in Elefsis (near Piraeus) on shore leave from a tanker on a rare port call (communication from sea in those days was sparse and expensive) to be informed she couldn't wait any longer....and my arch enemy had stolen her away. I returned home when my trip finished and was lost. For the next 6 years we saw each other again on and off again in between others. Always knowing somehow we were meant to be together...but never did....this song brings me to tears every time I hear it....I played it more times than I can remember.....
    When her marriage fell apart in the mid 90's (1995) the first person she tracked down and called was me..... I was married with 3 children then...
    Mine failed also....and again the second one...
    I searched and found her again, again to find her in an unhappy relationship..... 2016......We met again that Christmas....For the first time since 1990....
    The last 2 years have been the happiest of my life....
    Two weeks ago we had a holiday together on the Isle of Skye in Scotland....almost the Honeymoon we never had...I proposed on her birthday in a remote cottage....we will get married February 2019.
    This song is probably the best BJH track ever and still gives me chills. Once it made me sadder than I ever thought possible....now it makes me sad only for the years we lost together......but makes me happy for the words it contains. They could never be truer.

    A.... ....

    @Albatross43 ALL THE BEST FOR YOU GUYS ! XOX !!!

    A.... ....

    Great story, great song. I've been a fan of BJH since the 80's. It is a pitty, they fell apart. I wish you and your partner all the best and I am glad to hear that Poor Man's Moody Blues wasn't replaced by track 7 of Octoberon. Live happily ever after!!

    A.... ....

    We were married here last Thursday , Oct 3rd 2019. It was an absolutely magical wonderful day. Thank you for all your comments and best wishes.

  65. A.... D....

    someone wrote BJH was a poor Moody Blues (band) so John lees made this song with what the journalist said and added some of the music of "Nights in white Satin"

    A.... D....

    Apparently it was when the band was playing In Bristol at the Colston Hall that a journalist made the remark and John replied "I'll show you then"

    A.... D....

    Justin Hayward was not pleased; meeting him years later, bassist Les Holroyd apologised for it.
