Sandy Denny - Now & Then Lyrics

They've passed me by, many years,

And I did turn well away.

To give and lose love

And still no word had I to say,

Not to anyone.

Now I see

How I could speak honestly.

But when you're gone

Perhaps you'll long to be free.

I do know

When it is

That I must go.

For you can think of love

Wandering far from you,

Or of a warm heart

Wishing well and loving you.

I do believe

The way is

To live.

I have loved many

And you have, too.

But with the strength of the young

This love has memories,

They are the words to be sung.
