Lyrics: John Barlow
Music: Brent Mydland
Sung by Brent Mydland with the Grateful Dead in 1979-80 and then revived in 1990.
These are the lyrics on "Go To Heaven":
Good, good morning, so good to see youThe original lyrics were somewhat different:
You weren't just a dream of mine
Real as a raven, real as thunder
Real as the sun shining
But still so very hard to find
I can't imagine what's behind those sleepy eyes
Little stranger, don't try to hide now
You look so young and you're afraid
There is no danger but from the devil
And he may want you but I'm in his way
You don't know how easy it is
You don't know how easy it is to love you
And come the moonrise, when the dew falls
Don't be the sun that fades away
Don't leave me darkness, she is no lover
She hides the day
You don't know how easy it is
You don't know how easy it is to love you
Good, good morning, so good to see youNotes
You weren't just a dream of mine
Real as a raven, as a bluebird (note 1)
Real as the sun shining
Love to keep you through the day
Seems somehow you made your way into my heart
Warming woman, I feel so cold
Standing out in the rain
Couldn't see it in myself, love
All the same
You don't know how easy it is
You don't know how easy it is to love you
Free by evening, stand beside me
When the sunlight fades away
Don't leave me darkness, she is no lover
She hides the day
You don't know how easy it is
You don't know how easy it is to love you
You don't know how easy it is
You don't know how easy it is to love you
