Artist/Band: Donovan
Lyrics for Song: Writer In The Sun
Lyrics for Album: In Concert: Complete 1967 Anaheim Show [2006]



The days of wine and roses

Are distant days for me

I dream of the last and the next affair

And of girls I'll never see



And here I sit

The retired writer in the sun

The retired writer in the sun and I'm blue

The retired writer in the sun



Tonight I trod in the starlight

I excused myself with a grin

I ponder the moon in a silver spoon

And the little one 'live within



And here I sit

The retired writer in the sun

The retired writer in the sun



The magazine girl poses

On my glossy paper aeroplane

Too many years I spent in the City

Playing with Mr. Loss and Gain



And here I sit

The retired writer in the sun

The retired writer in the sun and I'm blue

The retired writer in the sun



I bathe in the sun of the morning

Lemon circles swim in the tea

Fishing for time with a wishing line

And throwing it back in the sea



And here I sit, the retired writer in the sun

The retired writer in the sun and I'm blue

The retired writer in the sun
