May This Be Love Lyrics
Waterfall
Nothing can harm me at all
My worries seem so very small
With my waterfall
I can see
My rainbow calling me
Through the misty breeze
Of my waterfall
Some people say
Day-dreamings for all the, huh,
Lazy minded fools
With nothin' else to do
So let them laugh, laugh at me
So just as long as I have you
To see me through
I have nothing to lose
'Long as I have you
Waterfall
Don't ever change your ways
Fall with me for a million days
Oh, my waterfall
Nothing can harm me at all
My worries seem so very small
With my waterfall
I can see
My rainbow calling me
Through the misty breeze
Of my waterfall
Some people say
Day-dreamings for all the, huh,
Lazy minded fools
With nothin' else to do
So let them laugh, laugh at me
So just as long as I have you
To see me through
I have nothing to lose
'Long as I have you
Waterfall
Don't ever change your ways
Fall with me for a million days
Oh, my waterfall

I read somewhere that when Dee Dee Ramone wanted to escape from all the choas and madness around him he would shoot up and sit under the sink with a blanket on it and let the water run and sit under it so he could pretend he was under a waterfall. This song reminds of that.
i think this is my favorite hendrix song =) its beautiful!!!! i love the part "I can see my rainbow calling me through the misty breeze of my waterfall". it reminds me of my best friend that i absolutely adore!!!
Both of you have a toke and relax. Good tune.
whether jimi wrote this about drugs or not, this is one of the most pure love songs out there, imho. the lyrics are short and don't try to take the metaphor too far. the music itself is . . . jimi effing hendrix. it's beautiful. sometimes i go to sleep to this song, i put the song on repeat and just drift off to this wonderful piece of rock artistry.
i love the rolling, waterfall-like drums. the guitar solo is just so dreamy and spaced out. the whole song is just amazing.
haha its just one of those bullshit love songs Jimi always does but he can put you in a trance with his playin
This is just about Jimi saying that he has a guard a protection and shield from the bullshit of life. It's the waterfall that can shield out all the bullshit of an inauthentic life...the inauthentic life. He is safe...safe from life's bullshit and within there is love. That's all as far as I can see. It's fucking beautiful.
I love this song and named my guitar 'Waterfall' after it. Its lyrically masterful in that you can take from it what you want.
Shut the "eff" up, man. Did you even read any of my post other than the part about drugs? I doubt it. He obviously was falling, and if you can't see that, you're self-blinded. "That's beyond the point" huh? Then why don't you say what the freakin' point is? Or would you prefer to insult my comments?
You might notice I DID say what I thought the point was. The drugs bit WASN'T the point of my post.
Sorry about the tone of that post, but I just can't stand idiotic BS. It's getting late, peace.
dudes this song is not about the lyrics!! lysten to the guitar! you can get high for that minuta and a half that he plays the sound of his soul. dcat is right dudes, chill and respect jimi's gift!
