Sapphire Songtext
von John Martyn

I watched the day go down
Sad fire
I watched my luck turn around
A high flyer
I threw my bones around
Sure fire
I watched the current run
Live wire

Clear blue
Too true
Clear blue
Too true

I don′t know what to do
I got no place to go
Oh, the day I lost sweet Sapphire
My precious gems are dust
There's nothing left to trust
Oh, the days of my sweet Sapphire


I saw her running round
Sweet liar
And I ran the garden by
Sweet flyer
I did just what I could
So tired
I threw my keys away
With no desire

Clear blue
Too true

I don′t know what to do
I got no place to go
Oh, the days of my sweet Sapphire
My precious gems are dust
There's nothing left to trust
Oh, the days of my sweet Sapphire


I got no place to go
I don't know what to do
Oh, the dream about Sapphire
I don′t know what to do
I got nowhere to go
I got no face to show without Sapphire
My precious gems are dust
There′s nothing left to trust
Oh, since the day I lost my sweet Sapphire
There's nothing I can trust
My precious gems are dust
Oh, the day I lost sweet Sapphire
I don′t know what to do
I don't know where to go
Oh, the day I lost my sweet Sapphire
