Nick Drake - Outside lyrics

Seems the time is near for finding a place outside

Seems the time is here for holding the window wide

So I'm going to try

To open up one eye

But if the world is too wide

I'll be home to hide

Keep it warm inside, if it's strange, outside.

Seems the time has flown, when we lived inside a cloud

Seems the time has gone, when nothing we said was out loud

Going to find a word

Make myself be heard

But if the world is too loud

I'll be home from the crowd

Keep it soft inside, if it's strange, outside.

Seems the time has come for banging our feet to the ground

Seems the time has come to see if the world is round

Sweep the smoke away

Reach the earth today

But if the world is all wrong

I won't be staying long

Keep it cool inside, if it's strange, outside.
