about

This song was written for Alexander. Recorded in the backyard for my aunty's house.

lyrics

I was waiting on a call
Waiting for an answer worth waiting for
Thought I was was better off alone
and I didn't have the hands to move no stone

But oh my heart it will not stray

If I could be anything, I'd be your darling
lying here always
If I could do anything, I'd be swinging my hand in your hand again

Love is a funny old thing
Taught me it could take before it showed me it could bring
And I used to feel so sad, used to break at every bend
But I guess you gotta break before you ever can mend

But oh, my hear it will not stray

If I could be anything, I'd be your darling
lying here always
If I could do anything, I'd be swinging my hand I your hand again

Mmm, it's you I adore
and I don't know why I ever cried before
Oh but I know that I don't have to cry no more

If I could be anything, I'd be your darling
lying here always
If I could do anything, I'd be swinging my hand I your hand again
do do do do do do
