Nick Drake — Strange Meeting II Family Tree Version

[Drake talking] Well I got a song out there recently Which means I'm likely to forget the words [Verse 1] Deep down in the depths of forgotten dreams So far away so long ago it seems The memory comes of a distant beach With the pale sand stretching far from reach It was then I found my princess of the sand [Verse 2] As I traced the foam with the pebbles beneath my feet I looked behind and I saw this one so sweet She came to me and I saw in her eyes The heavy toll of a thousand sighs I called her my princess of the sand [Verse 3] She stared at me and my mind was in a maze As we moved along in a summer sea-dream haze (laughing) She moved her mouth but it made no sound The message she brought can never be found But I called her my princess in the sand [Verse 4] One moment we walked with the night breeze in our face Then I looked, she'd gone of her presence there was no trace Where she went or came from who can know Or if she'll ever return to help me know Who she is, my princess of the sand Someday when the summer nights come back I'll go back to the sea and I'll follow that sandy track I'll look around, and I'll hope to find That strange young dream, (murmur) I'll call her my princess in the sand [Drake talking] As I thought I got the words [Someone talking] You alright then [Drake talking] Yeah Yes I do actually that's my that's my surrealist song It's crazy I don't know it's sort of funny dream
