John Martyn - Heaven And Earth Lyrics






The day was unchanged
There was some small change
Sitting in my pocket like a hole in the rain
Today was unchanged for me
Didn't know what hit me between the eyes
I never knew what hit me
I didn't know what could happen to just a little boy like me
I didn't know at all
I did not know what could happen to a little boy like me
Oh no I didn't know at all

I would move heaven and earth just to be with you
Yes I would move heaven and earth just to be by your side
I move heaven and earth just to be with you
I move heaven and earth just to stand by you

Watch the sun rise
And me saw it go down again
And I saw the moon come up you never said hello
I saw the sun go down
Moon come up and you never said hello to me
And I never knew just why

But I'm telling you I move heaven and earth just to be with you
I move heaven and earth just to be by your side

All of my sorrows they were passing way over heaven
All my sorrows they will soon to be put it
Oh, heaven and earth just to be with you
I moved heaven and earth just to stand by your side
I moved heaven and earth

All of my sorrows they will pass away over heaven
All of my sorrows they will soon to be put it
Oh heaven and earth just to be with you
I moved heaven and earth just to stand by your side
I moved heaven and earth just to be by your side stand by your side

Watch the sun rise, watch the moon rise
Watch the moon go away watch the sun set with you

Heaven and earth they may stand aside
Heaven and earth may stand aside
Heaven and earth may stand aside
Heaven and earth they may stand aside
Heaven and earth they may stand aside for the likes of you
I talked to them I talked to them sweetly and softly thus
Heaven and earth they will stand aside for you
I will move heaven and earth they will stand aside
I know they're going to stand aside for me

I weren't moving I just push them away I won't move them I'll just push them away
I'll move heaven and earth just to be with you
I'll move heaven and earth I've got to stand aside for you
Heaven and earth got to move away
Heaven and earth heaven and earth heaven and earth
Heaven on earth
