Syd from Earthly Paradise by Anandammide

SYD

Verse 1
You will never tell me anymore
That I should grow up
Get a haircut and
Dress up like a man

Verse 2
Though I worked so hard
And lost my sleep
Your would always see
Me as a grasshopper
Not as an ant

Chorus 1
Life was hard
For you from the start
But I only wanted you
To accept my ways
To see that through the days
When I was away
I have grown up
And become a man

Verse 3
Tireless you took care of everyone
’til the winter came for you
But you couldn’t sit and unwind

Verse 4
Memories turn into shapeless pain
When I want to call you and sing
You’re out of sight out of mind

Chorus 2
Through the sky
It’s you who gave me life
And let me overhear your voice
Through your breast
While on your lap I sat
When the evening was calm
And the night storm
It did not break out

Chorus 3
So now it’s my time to bring you
Inside of me
For we will never meet
In the hollow vale
Where willows weep
And where time’s standing still
