The Love Song Lyrics


I'm not very fancy in the mid of air
I'm not proud to say I am merry here
I've found a girl and I love her so
Groovy, groovy woman and she set me free
Hark awhile and listen to this love songGive me for sometimes I wanted to
Take her to the woods and show her what to do
She could see the stars if she's looking up
Drink the sweet juice from a loving cup
Show her what it is to make a love songHey, have you ever seen the lonely ones
Putting down the lovers for having fun?
The very same thing that would set them free
They should catch an evening with my lover and me
WhoopeeI'm not very fancy in the mid of air
I'm not proud to say I am merry here
I've found a girl and I love her so
Groovy, groovy woman and she set me free
Hark awhile and listen to this love song

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Donovan is a Scottish singer-songwriter who emerged as part of the mid-1960s folk music scene.

He was born Donovan Leitch on 10th May 1946 in Maryhill, Glasgow, Scotland; the family moved to Hatfield, England in 1956. Donovan came to fame in the United Kingdom in early 1965 with a series of live performances on the television pop series, Ready Steady Go!

Donovan first hit the pop charts in 1965 with his single "Catch The Wind". He produced hit after hit throughout the sixties and his Sunshine Superman album was considered an innovative breakthrough to a new psychedelic pop sound. His 1967 double album A Gift From A Flower To A Garden completed the transition from beat poet folkster to hippie troubadour. After splitting with producer Mickie Most after his album Barabajagal, his career struggled though the 1970s, but he has regained popularity with re-issues of his old songs in the 1990s.

Songfacts reports that Donovan first met Linda Lawrence in 1965, when she was recovering from a broken relationship with Brian Jones. The pair dated briefly, but not wanting the scrutiny and uncertainty of being a pop’s star girlfriend all over again, Lawrence broke it off at the end of the year. They continued to have an on-off romantic relationship over the next five years, and Linda exerted a huge influence on Donovan's music. They finally married on October 2, 1970 at Windsor Registry Office.

As a close friend of The Beatles he travelled to India with them during their famous trip, and taught them how to fingerpick.
