Small Hours

Going to get on up and fly away;
Go on out for another way
And a new day's dawn.
Going to carry on.

Keep on loving while your love is strong;
Keep on loving 'til your love is gone - away.

Well you're very lovely, going to take you home.
They say you'll be my ruin,
But I just don't care.
'Cause I love you so,
I just love you so.

Keep on loving 'til your love is gone;
Keep on loving while your love is strong,
All the way.

sitenote:
One of John's finest songs, like he said: "from the hippy period." The geese are audible and Steve Winwood does a wonderful job on the synthesizer.
Ralph McTell: "If that song doesn't move you, there is something wrong with you."
