Live On Love - John Martyn

I never met anyone like you before

It seemed every love affair would leave me crying

I thought I’d never find what I was looking for

Searching for so long, I got tired of trying

I never could tell anyone how I feel

I never could make it quite clear

I never could hold on to anyone’s heart

Life’s everything I held dear

I travelled in circles, drunk every day

Lending myself but at slander and libel

I didn’t need your love so I threw it away

I think about nothing but my own survival

I lost count of the money he held in his hands

More money just to die in more pain

How you could love me, I don’t understand

You pulled me in and out of that pouring rain

Look at me now, I don’t need no money at all

As long as I got you

I can live on love sweet love

Look at me now, I don’t need no money at all

As long as I got you girl

I can live on love sweet love

Sweet love

I never knew anyone like you before

It seemed every love affair would leave me crying

I thought I’d never find what I was looking for

Searching for so long, I got tired of trying

I never could tell anyone how I feel

I never could make it quite clear

I never did hold on to anyone’s heart

Life’s everything I held dear

Look at me now, I don’t need no money at all

As long as I got you

I can live on love, sweet love

Take a look, take a good look, darling

I don’t need no money at all

As long as I got you girl

I can live on love, sweet love

Take a look, take a good look, come on and take a look

I don’t need no money at all

As long as I got you girl

I can live on love, sweet love

Take a look, take a good look, come on and take a look

I don’t need no money at all

As long as I got you girl

I can live on love, sweet love
