| Nick Drake – Joey Lyrics

I think this song is about a casual relationship he became involved in shortly before his death, with the last few years at least. I believe she was a worldly, sexually experience gal, even a bit hard, but he liked her, cared for her, but did not love her. She knew of him and his music and was intrigued. She even desired sex from him, but Nick did not concede. Nick was a very romantic gentleman in my opinion and did not go out for casual sex. He "did" think about it though with this woman. He liked her enough to be at least slightly hurt if she was late or didn't show up when he thought she would. |

As with many of Nick's lyrics, multiple meaning may be found. To me it is a song about Christ and how people have been taken far from Him in their trips (literal) and otherwise. The sand could mean the burial or death that comes with sin. Nick was more traditional than some might think in some ways. I wonder if his family attended that church in Tanworth-In Arden? I know his mother donated money to the organ and/or organist who organizes the annual remembrance. |
