All My Love  

(Richard Manuel Is Dead)   





Got a message in my head 

that the papers had all gone 

Richard Manuel is dead 

And the daylight's coming on 

I've been wandering through the dark 

now I'm standing on the lawn 

 

If I could give all my love to you 

I could justify myself 

but I'm just not coming through 

You're a pill to ease the pain 

of all the stupid things I do 

I'm an anchor on the line 

of a clock that tells the time 

that is running out on you 

Well it was cold when i woke 

and the day was halfway done 

Nearly spring in San Francisco 

but I cannot feel the sun 

you were sleeping next to me 

but I knew that you'd be gone 

 

If I could give all my love to you 

I could justify myself 

but I'm just not coming through 

You're a pill to ease the pain 

of all the stupid things I do 

I'm an anchor on the line 

of a clock that tells the time 

that is running out on you 

Take some time before you go 

think of monday's coming down 

and the people that you knew 

The ones that aren't around 

you've been fading day to day 

I've been moving town to town 

 

If I could give all my love to you 

I could justify myself 

but I'm just not coming through 

You're a pill to ease the pain 

of all the stupid things i do 

I'm an anchor on the line 

of a clock that tells the time 

that is running out on you
