A Woman Like You

Bert Jansch · The Essential Bert Jansch [2010]

I don't believe I've seen

A woman like you anywhere

And I must admit that I can't see

To making you into a dream



But if I had a magical wonder word

I'd send a dove to catch your love

And I send a blackbird to steal your heart



But a broken heart won't go

My endless search, little girl

I gonna fix a magical spell

To weave on you, little girl



I'll fall along that you catch the wind

Upon the orange to sweetest sin

Before this very moment evil in



I'd rather wait at the dark

Of thousand times, little girl

And take the woman until

The heart of my soul



And if I catch you sleeping along the west

And gave you alone my secret way

But I bind your heart unto me very slow



I don't believe I've seen

A woman like you anywhere

And I must admit that I can't see

To making you into a dream



And if I had a magical wonder word

I send a dove to catch your love

And I send a blackbird to steal your heart
