All for the love of leaving am I
All for the love of grieving am I
Looking for you in the longing of life
When all along you were here by my side
It's a high your
It's a high, it's a high your love
Far in the future or in the past
I was a drifting bound to the mast
Searching for you on the ocean of loss
And all along no ocean to cross
It's a high your
It's high, it's a high your love
All on the island she danced
Sleep of forgetfulness entranced
Gazing on new some distance star
Om-Shri Sai-Baba, so near, so far
It's a high your
It's high, it's a high your love
All for the love of grieving am I
All for the love of leaving am I
Looking for you in the longing of life
When all along you were here by my side
It's a high your
It's a high, it's a high your love
All for the love of grieving am I
Looking for you in the longing of life
When all along you were here by my side
It's a high your
It's a high, it's a high your love

Searching for you on the ocean of loss
And all along no ocean to cross
It's a high your
It's high, it's a high your love
All on the island she danced
Sleep of forgetfulness entranced
Gazing on new some distance star
Om-Shri Sai-Baba, so near, so far
It's a high your
It's high, it's a high your love
All for the love of grieving am I
All for the love of leaving am I
Looking for you in the longing of life
When all along you were here by my side
It's a high your
It's a high, it's a high your love

Gawd…. Why can’t that man quietly retire to some remote cabin in the north of Scotland and just leave us alone?

Man, I wish there was an NPA button! I don’t know if this particular piece would inspire me to press it, but there are plenty of others that would. (Fortunately still a tiny fraction of what RP plays!)
Stupid, annoying, irrelevant.
Perfect candidate for a NPA (Never Play Again) button.
Ugh! 😩
I think Bill just throws these in as a "stress test" of the system. In that, he really doesn't expect us to enjoy the entry..more so to test the bandwith/performance threshold of the PSD feature.

This is hideous.

Leaving a comment to indicate that William was a cheeky lad and slipped this ho-hum track into the rotation again...
This song reminds me of the old SNL skit, "Choppin' Broccoli", in which a washed-up musician is under pressure to "bloody score" with some new songs. I think Donovan must have been under the same pressure from his label and just made this sh*t up.
This song is just plain awful... No need to keep this in the rotation, please delete...
For the love of god, please stop playing this.........

Damn, that hurt.
For the love of God, please no.
Am I the only one who thinks RP has become strangely obsessed with Donovan lately?
Donovan's Hare Krishna conversion hurts all my chakras. This is awful.
WTF is all i have to say
Ouch
The quintessence of schmaltz. The pulsing volume of his voice. The vibrato. The Sitar. OMG.
I don't like this but can't understand why I'm smiling so much :)
I like Donovan. Just not this one.
I do like the timbre of his voice in this.
can I like Donovan and not like this?
Well at least the rating suits for today's weather..

If you're going to engage in cultural appropriation, at least do it well. Yuck!
Married to the same woman since 1970.
Must be going for a worlds record.

Sung to the tune of "High Your Love".

Ha! I think Bill plays this just to reaffirm he can play whatever he damn likes regardless of ratings. I can live with that, though not this song, lol.
Anyone else hear shades of Ivor Cutler?
Having noted the comment about Ohio, now I can't hear anything else...
(Random aside: I know someone whose relative insists that Ohio doesn't exist and is a conspiracy. So-if you have ever been there- you are part of the conspiracy...)

I like it : ) and respect Donovan and his sincere way
Lol

It`s Ohio, It`s Ohio, It`s Ohio ))))))
I like it too. Donovan's voice resonates in me from my ears to my chest. RP = diversity, right?
So sorry, but I like it. ![{#Neutral} {#Neutral}](https://img.radioparadise.com/emoji/icon_neutral.gif)

I would think you needed to be there to appreciate this one. Sadly, I wasn't.
