I wish I had walked down, every road I ever set my eyes upon.
I wish I could take care, of every dream I ever set my heart upon.
I wish I could step free, of every weight I ever leaned my weight upon.
Lay low, let the good things come,
Lay low, let the good things come.
Wish I could walk out, of every scene of every game I ever played.
I wish I could move on, from every place in every town I ever stayed.
I wish I could let go, and hold on to anything I wanted to.
Let go, let the good things come,
Let go, let the good things come;
Lay low, let the good things come,
Let go, let the good things come.
I wish I could see you, and bear the times and long the days to waste away.
I wish I could be you, and see the world another way, another way.
I wish you could get through, to every face and every friend I ever knew.
Let go, let the good things come,
Let go, let the good things come.
Let go, let the good things come,
Lay low, let the good things come...
I wish I could take care, of every dream I ever set my heart upon.
I wish I could step free, of every weight I ever leaned my weight upon.
Lay low, let the good things come,
Lay low, let the good things come.
Wish I could walk out, of every scene of every game I ever played.
I wish I could move on, from every place in every town I ever stayed.
I wish I could let go, and hold on to anything I wanted to.
Let go, let the good things come,
Let go, let the good things come;
Lay low, let the good things come,
Let go, let the good things come.
I wish I could see you, and bear the times and long the days to waste away.
I wish I could be you, and see the world another way, another way.
I wish you could get through, to every face and every friend I ever knew.
Let go, let the good things come,
Let go, let the good things come.
Let go, let the good things come,
Lay low, let the good things come...

| Sloggydog (UK) | Posted: Jun 27, 2012 - 00:05 Would have been much happier with David Gray doing David Gray and John Martyn doing John Martyn |

| socalhol (Seattle) | Posted: Mar 23, 2012 - 16:29 Just love this song! Seems to have been tailor-made for David Gray — very similar to his own style. |
| meinthecorner (Past the gravy, far beyond the golden fries) | Posted: Feb 15, 2012 - 15:34 Bumped this one: 7 to 8! Any chance, BILL, that we could hear some original John Martyn music. I've heard you play one of his songs recently. More, please!!! Thanks! |
| Groogrux69 (Auburn, CA) | Posted: Feb 15, 2012 - 14:56 What a great album. Got me listening to John Martyn. How is it did I not know of him before I started listening to RP? |
| Bobert_ParkCity (Park City Utah) | Posted: Feb 13, 2012 - 19:06 I'd love to learn how to do this... |
| sbegf (Manchester, Maryland) | Posted: Jan 14, 2012 - 20:34 Definitely need to hear this again... |

| michaelgmitchell (Ontario, Canada) | Posted: Dec 26, 2011 - 13:45 Yummy. David nails this. Powerful, yet understated. |
| dpvest (northern cali) | Posted: Dec 06, 2011 - 14:46 this is nice. seems like I should have gotten to know johnny boy way back when... |
| Blue_Skylark | Posted: Nov 17, 2011 - 19:00 When first I heard this it reminded me of another song. Listen to Elton John's "Love Song" from Tumbleweed Connection... same feel. At least to me... |
