"The day ended with all the things won and lost" as the song says. At 26 years old on 25-11-74 Nick Drake is a unique artist, very reserved and sensitive, but little known, he leaves his songs that are a suggestion to life. I keep all his songs translated into Italian and while today, listening to his songs, nostalgia takes me.
Day Is DoneWhen the day is doneDown to earth then sinks the sunAlong with everything that was lost and wonWhen the day is doneWhen the day is doneHope so much your race will be all runThen you find you jumped the gunHave to go back where you begunWhen the day is doneWhen the night is coldSome get by but some get oldJust to show life’s not made of goldWhen the night is coldWhen the bird has flownGot no-one to call your ownGot no place to call your homeWhen the bird has flownWhen the game’s been foughtNewspaper blown accross the court Lost much sooner than you would have thoughtNow the game’s been foughtWhen the party’s through Seems so very sad for youDidn’t do the things you meant to doNow there’s no time to start anewNow the party’s throughWhen the day is doneDown to earth then sinks the sunAlong with everything that was lost and wonWhen the day is done..

So sad that this wonderfully talented voice left far too soon. So glad we have some pieces of it left.
