So forget this cruel world
Where I belong
I’ll just sit and wait
And sing my song
And if one day you should see me in the crowd
Lend a hand and lift me
To your place in the cloud

Cello Song - Nik Drake

Strange face 
With your eyes
So pale and sincere
Underneath you know well
You have nothing to fear
For the dreams that came 
To you when so young
Told of a life 
Where spring is sprung

You would seem so frail 
In the cold of the night
When the armies of emotion
Go out to fight
But while the earth 
Sinks to it’s grave
You sail to the sky 
On the crest of a wave

So forget this cruel world
Where I belong
I’ll just sit and wait
And sing my song
And if one day you should see me in the crowd
Lend a hand and lift me
To your place in the cloud

Cello Song - Nik Drake

He put equal importance on the listener's interpretation as he did his own, rarely being specific as to the song's meaning... The mystery is part of the appeal, it helps the listener bring their own life to the song.
 
Your first impression of Nick was of incredible elegance. Only later would you notice his shabby lace-up shoes and ill-fitting jacket.
 
Nick seems to have become the patron saint of the depressed... Apart from his last year I can assure you that he did have many crazy, happy spells.
