Make No Mistake

If I can't be a happy man, I won't be no one at all.
If I can't be just who I am, I won't let you come to call.
I was alright before I walked through the door;
I was alright outside, but inside I had to cry..

Low today and high tomorrow, I see that it's real.
One man's meat's another man's sorrow, do you know how it feels
To be dead drunk on the floor;
To get up and ask for more?
To be lying in the dark,
Crying.

If I can't be a peaceful man, I will be who I can.
If I can't get everything I want, I'll just get what I can. (Pfoo!)
I was alright before I walked out the door;
I was alright inside,
But outside I had to look again, again, again...

A love
- (again again) -
Love again
A love supreme, divine,
Anyway that you want it to be.
Love - It's love, it's love.
Love! Love! Love!
A love supreme, a love supreme.

Make no mistake,
Make no mistake, it's love.
Make no mistake, it's love;
Make no mistake, it's love.

Divine it's love, it's fine, it's wine, it's time, it's love.
Love! Love! Love..
Make no mistake, it's love.
It's love.. Sweet love.. Love..

sitenote:
Another all time Martyn classic. The Love Supreme bit hints at the classic John Coltrane track.
